Wait, is that a native 5 icon dock?!

Woah!
Thats right, it is native and doesnt mess up the icon appearence when you dont have 5.
If you want to know how to do this then make yourself heard in the comments!

Edit: I got someone who asked how I did this (in the comments) and hoped that it wasn't kate... sadly it was kate that I was using, so I decided to go searching for another way to get a 5 icon dock without the need for a buggy program like Kate... Well, I found it!
Saurik (the creator of Cydia) has just released a "5 icon dock" application under the Telesphoreo source

and it works extremely well... all it does is enable the 5th icon, and nothing else. If you suddenly change your mind and dont want the 5th icon then all you have to do is take it off the dock and now you have 4.
I took some pictures as I was installing the 5 icon dock, view them below:

actually it is with Kate. I wish I had better news for you. If I find a way to do it without Kate (and trust me, I've been trying) then I'll post it here.
If spicychicken ever updates customize, then you can use freeboard to make a five icon dock.

@sorphin:

Just updated the post to reflect a new method that doesnt use kate... it is very easy!
