Title:
  Dash visibly reorganizes recent items

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Say my last opened application is Nautilus (Files), then it will
  appear as the first item in the Dash home lens. Suppose I closed
  Nautilus. Now I open Firefox via the Dash home lens. If I go back to
  the Dash home lens, Nautilus will still be the first item in the
  recent applications. A little duration after opening the Dash, Firefox
  is then set as the first one.

  The problem is that for my hardware (Intel 945GM integrated graphics)
  this little duration is in the order of a second, so if I would like
  to open Nautilus I end up clicking on the newly positioned Firefox
  icon.

  I would suggest that all this reorganization, not related to
  searching, be done in the background while the Dash is closed, so
  there's no way to make a mistake while trying to click a "moving"
  icon.

  ** What happens **
  When I open the Dash, the icons are repositioned. The duration of such process is hardware dependent.

  ** What should happen **
  If I am not searching, the positions of the icons in the Dash home lens should be fixed. This implies that the recently used items be sorted while the Dash is closed.
