Public bug reported: This is a usability issue in 2 parts:
1. I would like to add a Launcher icon for git-gui, however when I use the 'Lock to Launcher' option and close the GUI, the launcher icon disappears. 2. There is no easy way to create a custom launcher icon (Creating a .desktop file in a non-obvious location is not an easy way! Not least because I have no idea what icon to use, and the default icon is uuuugly!)
