Well currently it should work like this:

1) When you click on it it will either start the app or switch to it's
most recent window when running
2) Click and hold or right click opens the context menu (Add/Remove to
Favorites, New Window)
3) You can open a new window by holding down ctrl and clicking on it
or by dragging it on a workspace
