Bug Description

Version: current Edgy, on two different computers

A panel launcher loses all of its contents after it has been moved on the panel with the left mouse button twice.

Steps to recreate:
- Add a panel launcher
- Click and holde the left mouse button, move to a different location, then release the button
- Repeat the last step
- The panel launcher's icon changes to the "icon missing" icon, and looking at the icon's settings reveals that the Name, Command and Description fields are empty.

This does not happen when using the middle mouse button to move the launchers.

And there is another little bug : some icons are not complete on their left part. This happen also with the default gnome icon theme.
