Bug Description

A really killer feature would be being able to show badges on launchers (such as unread messages in postler, updates available etc). I believe this is achievable with the Unity Launcher API

For this issue, I think the main problem will be to keep consistency with the dock which uses his own theming…

It would be worth chatting with Rico to see if libplank could be used to help with keeping the styling consistent between Plank and Slingshot.
