No way to add a new app launcher from Gnome 3.x GUI?

Perhaps it's time for bed for me, but apparently there is no way to manually add a new app launcher from the Gnome 3 gui? is that possible?

This page here (describing Ubuntu and Gnome3)
http://bloggezmoy.com/2011/05/17/how-to-add-an-application-to-the-gnome-3-application-launcher/
details the manual procedure of copying an existing .desktop file and editing it by hand (great! user friendly!) -sarcasm-
or
it tells users to run 'alacarte' (which, see previous thread from me to this list, doesn' t work).

If an OS GUI like Gnome3 were to behave intuitively to the rules of modern GUIs, I' d say that if I go to the "Applications" view of Gnome 3, go to an empty space, and right click, there should come up a new pop-up menu with one of its options dubbed "Create a new app launcher".

But no, right clicking on empty space doesn't do diddly squat in the Gnome 3 Applications screen.

:-/

Am I missing something obvious?
