The default OS X Dock position is at the bottom of the screen and the
Dock can be moved to the left or to the right of the screen. So
Unity's Launcher doesn't quite mimic it. If it did, I'd move the
Launcher to the bottom with auto-hide. As it is, I just look at
switching back and forth between OS X and Unity as a "test/game;" on
OS X "go down for the Dock" and on Unity "go left for the Launcher."
