oh no, linking lenses is optional and only if the user has installed or set them. and some lenses could provide its own preview/widgets.
else some previews only link to an app, browser, etc. (or may not link to anything if they are designed that way). sadly for something like this to get implemented , the devs need to open up to the idea that users need to be able to customize some things to their needs.

Great idea I thought about apps. But preview of lenses is also not bad. But combining both of this would be confusing wouldn't be? Also lenses aren't a good place to display things like mails... Opening Thunderbird directly would be better. But I considering this idea for further improvements ;) I improved my idea this way: Sorry some names are in German ;), forgot to change system language, but I think everybody should be able to understand it though If you click on Apps or Files the filter options for this lenses are shown and the fitting lens with the right filter displayed. If you click on system you'll get some possibilities, more could be added, but I wouldn't bloat it to much. http://ubuntuone.com/0dZEtliYhI9NoQEc2VISud Finally we could make a widget for notes, connect it with u1 and we have a replacement for tomboy^^
