Thanks for the patch.

Design question: your approach is that the 'start with return' functionality is 
only available if there is a clear match. The other option would be to choose 
one of the matches to be the default one (this is the behavior that the GNOME 
shell is using, go to hot corner and type 'fir' for example to see it). They 
highlight the default match, we could do similar with drawing the corner around 
the icon (like when you hover over it). Might be a nice idea to do this in 
general, actually.

Yes that seems like in might be a nice extension to Gonzalo's patch. How would 
you take the decision on picking the default match, by most recent use, most 
frequent use, recent install?

I did not think about it yet. I thought about looking at what the GNOME shell is doing. Most recent use, might be a good fit though.

When you say 'nice idea to do this in general' were you thinking of the Journal 
search, and activity list view?

Ahh, I meant, that showing the rectangle (highlight) the icon is a good way of feedback. Just for the home view.

Regards,
   Simon
