Khurshid: I think deciding one or the other is tangential, they are just two different tools both necessary for the default core experience of Ubuntu. One is necessary for Unity 7, the other is necessary for Nautilus (and other GNOME apps/tools).

This is especially important since it's being seriously proposed for Ubuntu 17.10 that we drop the "type-ahead search" patch that reverted the removal of that feature by Nautilus years ago. (LP: #1666681) To not cripple Ubuntu GNOME, it was decided to let Nautilus build against tracker but not use that functionality on Unity.
