Public bug reported: Onboard 0.97 can be configured to auto-show when an editable text entry becomes focused. It does this by reacting to AT-SPI focus messages. Unity Dash's search box seems like prime candidate to unhide Onboard, but currently there are no at-spi messages triggered when opening dash. It would be great if dash search could be at-enabled.
