Attaching a mockup of a possible solution.

The idea is to let the first item in the sample apps be a place holder,
that when clicked repopulates the list with all avail apps for the
particular category sorted alphabetically.

The reason why we need to go about it like this is that there is
currently no way in the communication between the lens/place daemons and
Unity/Unities to signal that the expander has been clicked and that the
data daemon should take some action (repopulating the section in this
case).

So; the proposed solution can be done without breaking API or anything.
It does require a non-trivial amount of code, but is doable if the
release team looks very favourable on this :-)

  Dash: only returns first 5–6 "available to download" results;
