This functionality in Unity is now fully provided by the Smart Scopes
feature, available since unity 7.1. Selecting the Applications lens and
the Search Plugins filter will display all search plugins available
(local or through the Software Centre).
This bug has been fixed and released.

Title:
Dash, Software Centre - List all Lenses and Scopes in new "Dash Search
Plugins" category
Status in Ayatana Design:
Fix Committed
Status in Unity:
Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
All Lenses and Scopes should be displayed in the software centre, the
change request is as follows:
1. Add all the default Lenses to a 'Dash search plugins' category
inside 'Themes & tweaks'. The current default Lenses are:
unity-lens-applications
unity-lens-files
unity-lens-music
unity-lens-video
unity-lens-photos
They are currently hidden as 'technical items', this needs to be
switched off.
Note unity-lens-gwibber will also hopefully become default lenses this
cycle.
2. Add graphical assets to represent the Lenses in the Software
Center. A icon for each Lens is available, and screenshots with the
default wallpaper also need to be attached to each Lens.
3. All other Lenses currently listed in the software centre should
also be added to this "Dash Search Plugins" category inside 'Themes &
tweaks'. Note that there are quite a number of 3rd party Lenses that
need to be categorised in this way.
4. All scopes should be listed as 'add-ons' for specific Lenses, e.g.
unity-scope-musicstores should be a add-on for the Music Lens. Double
check that all scopes are correctly listed as add-ons, and none are
visible in the "Dash Search Plugins" category.
5. Check that a user can both install and un-install all of these
Lenses and Scopes, including those shipped by default.
Implementing this requires an icon for the subcategory, bug 1036217.
