Here's a video depicting it:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2jxvef0hd1dkqwz/unity-dash-search-bug.mp4

So to recap, here's what happens. If you search for something, whether
or not you open it, the next search is not a "full" search.

What happens:

1) Open dash via super key
2) Type libreoffice
3) Close dash via super key
4) Open dash via super key
5) Type yourfile.odt

What should happen is Unity should find yourfile.odt, but Unity does
*not* find it. If you hit esc prior to step 5, Unity WILL find it. It's
as if hitting the esc key (and thereby deleting everything in the dash
search) reinitializes a FULL scan.

Is there a way to turn off the dash history? If Unity isn't even trying
to save prior searches (which is useless anyway), then this would
circumvent the problem altogether as it would force Unity to do a full
scan each time.
