Dear Ayatana team,
The default lenses currently has some unclear issues for me. Take the
applicatrions lens for example. What is the reasoning behind having
multiple-selection tool in the adwanced search bar? Why would someone want

Personally I am not sure that "About this computer..." is used so
frequently to deserve to be so easily accessible.

Apt already knows how to do that --no-install-recommends. I think a similar
option is available for stuff installed with the installation media.
If not, then a different solution should be looked at. Also I don't know
how large of an impact it will have, so we should consider it more
carefully.

Awesome idea, strange I didn't came up with it. Might be because I'm not

Anyhow, for implementing this idea on the BRB should be possible with even

Since empty space shouldn't have interactions, the "Create New Launcher"
option could appear when right-clicking the BFB.
Conceptually it makes sense, since the BFB is the only tile that interacts
with the launcher directly (the rest are all related to applications or
folders).

I agree with the problem, however I believe the suggested solution has a
