I am commenting here because it seems related. Doing a partial search yields better results than a more specific one. For example, I wanted to open Brasero Disc Burner from the dash so I typed "cd burner" and while Brasero did show when I typed cd, it dissappeared when I typed burner (which is funny because that word happens to be part of the name of the application).
