In Gnome 3 do a new launcher in a personal folder (without a terminal)
like Desktop, is a very hard think!

Some (not line command) solution:

a) Install and use a shell extension (connection-manager).

b) yum install alacarte, but this apps put the launcher into menu, not
in a generic folder.

c) install another file manager, like caja or thunar an use it to create
a launcher.

d) in your home folder Model, create a new text file called "New
Launcher.desktop", set the execution flag on and put into it somethings
like this:
> [Desktop Entry]
> Version=1.0
> Type=Application
> Terminal=true
> Exec=read -p pausa
> Name=New launcher
> Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/audacity.svg  
now you can open a folder and do "New Document/New launcher", then
modify it* via right click property.
* nautilus is a poor launcher maker, you do not modify all if you want,
and if you want change the icona ... is a very hard (and ridiculous)
think!

e) other way suggested from other user.

Hope this help.
