Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

The only command-line parameter one can use is the package name,
»software-center gedit« takes you to gedit’s page.

To make the Software Center more open to other applications, what about
a parameter that can pass a search string to it, like »software-center
"search string"«?

I am asking because of the alternative application menu Cardapio: 
https://launchpad.net/cardapio
It has a Software Center plugin which already uses the »software-center 
PACKAGENAME« parameter. This additional search string parameter would be of 
great use:
