Bug description:
upstart in user session manages environmental variables and most
things have them, however Alt-f2 started proccesses lack them.
to test
Super Key -> "xterm" -> Enter -> env | grep SSH
vs
Alt+F2 -> "xterm" -> Enter -> env | grep SSH
via Super Key -> the environment is correct
via Alt-F2 -> it is not
I believe Alt+F2 code path should call into upstart dbus api to "list-env"
and import that environment before executing the search result.
