Lenses get confused if scope names are too similar

Bug description:
If scopes in different lenses have names that are too similar to each
other, results from one lens can show up incorrectly under another
one. This can be most easily noticed in the home lens, but can occur
under individual lenses as well.
For example, installing the Bliss lens (lp:unity-lens-bliss) and the
Books lens (lp:unity-lens-books) can lead to results from the Bliss
lens (applications) showing up under both Bliss's applications
category and the Books category when a global search is done. A
screenshot is attached to demonstrate this The screenshot contains
results for the default applications lens, the Bliss lens and the
Books lens, with Firefox showing up under all three. It should not
show up under Books.
This happens due to the fact that the local scope in the Bliss lens
dbus path is named: ''/net/launchpad/unitylensbliss/scope/main" and
Books one is named "/net/launchpad/lens/books/scope/main". Using
D-Feet to view dbus introspection data, it appears that the details
for both net.launchpad.UnityLensBliss.Lens and
net.launchpad.Lens.Books show
/com/canonical/dee/model/com/canonical/Unity/Scope/main/T1321723498/Results
in their introspection data. Note that 'main' appears as the final
part of the scope's dbus path and the scope definition lens's
introspection data.
A workaround for this is to ensure that the last part of the dbus path
of a scope is unique.
