My temptation would be for 1(+2) for Ubuntu 11.04. For (3), rather than prepending "Download: ", one could /append/ "…" indicating a multi-step process in-addition/instead of an overlay emblem. When users notice, this would be a quick and easy discriminator and should(?) work for accessibility when a simple icon-overlay would not.
I'd expect to see non-local/non-installed applications sort later, unless they are an exact match too. An already-installed "xterm" or "Gnome Terminal" would win over Konsole for the example search of "terminal", but 'Konsole" would still win for a search for "konsole" typed explicitly because of an exact match. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733669 Title: Dash: installed/not installed packages are conflated under "Applications": incredibly confusing -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
