I agree your "category view" would help make the apps lens better. A few other
additions that would also improve the apps lens would be:
-Filters: If it also shows them by default would work better for most people,
make their browsing easier than the current and minimize their complains.
-Apps available for download: I believe download suggestions should only appear
searches (and maybe also after clicking on the filters, but not when showing
all). Most relevant first. A link to get more apps could also be shown.
-Recent apps: is already in the home lens, it could be kept, but probably not
necessarily expanded.

Doesnt really makes sense as a separate lens though.
yeah, this is the problem I have with it. If it is a separate lens
then the global search would return results from the core apps lens
and my alternative lens which would double up the results (I think).
I kind of don't really want to do this myself, I just want the
regular apps lens to work how I want it to, but I am not sure how
intentional the current behavior is.
