Title:
  UX - click on Dash preview image should trigger 'launch' action too

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Problem:
  For an average user an icon represents a program, in the case of the Dash preview it's the preview image. There is a good chance the users will click on the Dash preview image expecting it launchs the default action. Also from an UX point of view it is much easier to click on the preview image then the launch bottom.

  Solution:
  Make the Dash preview clickable and launch the default action.

  
  Annotation:
  The current preview icons differs in size, it would be good to have a minimal target area defined and visual delimited.
