Public bug reported:

I intermittently get no results when searching the dash (Ubuntu 14.04
64bit). It seems to depend on typing speed/have a random element,
however here is a way which consistently reproduces the error for me
(with Firefox installed):

- Copy the word 'firefox' to clipboard
- Open the dash (super key) and paste (ctrl+v) - Firefox result appears after a short pause
- Press ctrl+backspace to clear search, then immediately ctrl+v again
- Message appears 'sorry, nothing matches your search' after a short pause

This seems to only happen on the 'home' lens and not the 'applications'
lens specifically. It works with other applications too e.g.
'calculator'.
