Title:
  replace dash system setting icons by one icon

Bug description:
  When browsing installed applications in the Dash, there is too much
  clutter, there are too many meaningless entries for average users,
  entries that I don't expect to be listed. An idea popped up to my mind
  on how to reduce the clutter a bit without loosing functionality:

  Replace all system settings related entries by one system setting
  icon.

  If e.g. a user types 'privacy' in the Dash, instead of displaying the
  privacy icon (current state), the system setting icon appears with an
  additional text 'privacy' – see attached image. When the user clicks
  on the icon, he  gets directly to the privacy options in the system
  settings.

  This way we reduce the clutter by 23 icons without reducing
  functionality!
