[Bug 1281297] Re: Scale/Spread Search does not use applications name

 

First of all, thank you for fixing that )))
But still, an issue remains with this. I use Russian localisation in Ubuntu and if I type "terminal", I still can't see the terminals as matches. This is simply  because in Russian, the terminal app is called "Терминал". Obviously, the search is done now only by localised app names.
I believe that search should also be done by original app names.

Title:
  Scale/Spread Search does not use applications name

Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  To reproduce:

  1) Open 2 gnome-terminal
  2) Super+W (to go into scale mode)
  3) type "terminal"

  Expected:
    The 2 gnome-terminals to be left as valid matches.

  Result:
    Empty search results on the gnome-terminals.

  Also, based on a duplicate:
  I propose that not only are the windows in spread filtered by title, but also by
  - application name, e.g. "gnome terminal"
  - generic name, e.g. "web browser"
  - application category, e.g. "multimedia"
