screenshot comparing the results and showing spotify desktop file
SUMMARY
Whenever I search for some application, there is a moment where Kickoff Applet
prioritizes the application command line rather than the name (I attached some
screenshots).
For example, when I type `CL` it shows the CLion IDE as the first candidate,
but when I type `CLi`, it gives me Spotify as the first candidate (and I'm
guessing it is looking at the command line, which has the `Client` word).
I cannot count how many times I started typing `CL` and seeing the right result
but having my fingers already in the process of typing the `i`, so the Enter is
pressed right after and Spotify gets opened.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have both Spotify (Flatpak) and CLion installed
2. Type CL and CLi on Kickoff
OBSERVED RESULT
CLion comes when I type `CL` but Spotify comes when I type `CLi`.
EXPECTED RESULT
CLion being always prioritized because Spotify doesn't have `CLi` in its name,
only in the command.
