Public bug reported:
Firstly, this isn't about "type quickly, hit enter without looking, and
instead of e.g. running firefox you get fidentify". I'm sure you're
already aware of that. Instead -
1. Log into Ubuntu as a guest user. Either Ubuntu or Ubuntu 2D session will do.
2. As soon as the dock appears, bring up the dash with alt+f2
3. Start typing immediately, e.g. "xterm"
"no results could be found". Try again, and it works properly. (xterm
is always installed by ubuntu-desktop).
I've also noticed occaisionally that I'm unable to close the dash using
the Escape key. I think you can reproduce this with the fresh-login
method, but different timing. Wait for long enough that it shows a
result after typing "xterm", then hit Escape once to clear "xterm", then
try hitting Escape again and see if it works or not.
