Title:
  Pressing Alt+F2 while in the dash closes it, and vice versa

Bug description:
  What was expected:
  ---------------------------
  *  Pressing Alt+F2 while in the main dash would switch to the "Run a command" 
(...lens...?)

  What happened instead:
  *  Pressing Alt+F2 results in the dash closing

  Reproduce:
  *  Press start to open the dash
  *  Press Alt+F2
  *  Note that the dash closes, rather than switching to the "Run a command" 
prompt

  Reasoning / solution:
  *  Alt+F2 closing the dash doesn't make sense.  I didn't use Alt+F2 to open 
it, why would I use that command to close it?
  *  I think that pressing Alt+F2 while in the dash should switch to the run 
command prompt, not close the dash
  -one possible solution would be binding Super+F2 to the open run command 
prompt, which is more consistent with the experience of using the dash
  -another would be simply switching to the run prompt like any other lens, and 
leaving the key binding the same

  I am willing to do work in fixing this "bug," if it triaged.
