This capability is supported in recent versions of Ubuntu Software
Center where applications are always displayed by default, and system
packages are hidden. To display system packages, you simply need to
click the "Show N Technical Items" link at the bottom left of the
Software Center window.

Many thanks!

Title:
  Categorize search results

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Considering how USC puts the emphasis on applications and less on
  packages it would be nice to divide the search results into different
  categories. The simplest way would be to have a header with the title
  "Applications" and another with the title "System Packages" or
  something similar. When search results are displayed Applications
  would always come first in the list.

  This could be expanded so that theme and fonts are also in their own
  category and are above System Packages.

  The closest to that is on Apple.com when you search. I'm providing a
  screenshot.
