** Description changed:

- I have a maildir for my mail. My computer's name is "nightingale", and
- this name is in the filenames in the maildir. I have a lot of email!
+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ Doing a search in the shell might lead to unresponsive processes that
+ are not terminated when the search is cancelled or when the gnome-shell
+ overlay is closed.
+ 
+ [ Test case for GNOME-Shell and Nautilus ]
+ 
+ 1. Run ubuntu session with gnome-shell, and open a system monitor (htop, top, 
gnome one)
+ 2. Open gnome shell overlay (hit super, or got to activity)
+ 3. Search for a short string (3 chars let's say) that matches many files you 
know you have
+ 4. Close the overlay (press super again, hit escape twice)
+ 5. The nautilus process should stop using CPU once the overlay is closed
+ 
+ [ Test case for GNOME-Shell and GNOME-Calculator ]
+ 
+ 1. Run ubuntu session with gnome-shell, and open a system monitor (htop, top, 
gnome one)
+ 2. Open gnome shell overlay (hit super, or got to activity)
+ 3. Type "10!!!"
+ 4. Close the overlay (press super again, hit escape twice)
+ 5. The gnome-calculator process should stop using CPU once the overlay is 
closed
+ 
+ [ Regression Potential ]
+ 
+ Nautilus search results returned are missing elements when continuously
+ update the search string, gnome-calculator computations via the shell
+ might not work as expected.

  When I search for "tilix" to start a terminal after logging in, Nautilus
  goes crazy consuming CPU. This is because I have to type "ti" to type
  "tilix" and "ti" is a substring of "nightingale". This is submitted as a
  search string to the nautilus search provider and apparently isn't
  cancelled when I close the entry - I checked the GError and it's NULL.
  
  A similar thing happens with the ctrl-f search in nautilus itself.
  
  We talked about this on IRC and I provided some traces and stuff.
  Linking to the log to avoid having to fetch those out into files. :-)
