You have been subscribed to a public bug:
The dash search should not require the user to remember the exact
wording of the app the user is searching for.
What I expected to happen: I know I want to start sensors, but forgot
that the actual program name is xsensors. I type 'sensors' and
'Xsensors' appears in the search results since it is a partial match.
What actually happened: Typing "sensors" does not bring up xsensors in
the search results. Xsensors is only shown if the search begins with
"xse...".
