Steps to reproduce: Under System Settings -> Privacy disable file and
application recording and clear all usage data (in the "Files and
Application" tab)  and disable online dash results from the "Search"
tab.

The dash will now claim there is nothing to match your unprovided
"search".

Title:
  Dash displays "nothing that matches your search" before beginning a
  search

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Dash currently displays "Sorry, there is nothing that matches your
  search" before the user has entered a query. A screenshot of this is
  attached. This negative feedback conveys the inaccurate impression
  that the user's search has failed. Instead, it would seem to me more
  appropriate to initially present either a blank slate or a message
  with a more neutral tone, such as "Results will appear here."
