The application menu has also the goal to let the user discover the applications available in the system. I like the idea of showing installable applications in the search results, but Tyler is right that it can hurt the primary goal of opening common programs if done badly. I think showing a separate panel for the software center results would be enough to distinguish both use cases and reduce the possible confusion. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
