Title:
  dash search breaks when used quickly

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

Bug description:
  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.
