In case I have to reset or reinstall my launcher, how can I back up the settings? (Such as the list of applications.)

To get a list of applications do:
gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites > myfavs.txt
Then to reset the launcher to those applications do:
gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites "`cat myfavs.txt`"
Icon size and other Unity settings are stored in this gconf file:
~/.gconf/apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/%gconf.xml
