You can show the Xcode package contents and look in "Contents/Applications" to find the applications, make an alias of the application you want and place that alias in the Applications folder. I think this will cause it to show up in Launchpad. I don't use Launchpad, but this seemed to work when I tried it with Instruments before sending this email.

Now, after installing, when I try to launch for instance Instruments, I got the error message that this application is in the Trash. This happened actually while launching or installing Xcode the first time, as I chose to move the former versions into the Trash.
