Bug description:
  Test case:
  1. Start with a fresh system
  2. Open the dash, type in Sound (or locale equivalent) and run the Sound preferences 4-5 times
  3. Close the dash
  4. Open the dash, type in Sound
     -> The "Sound" application should be the first one appearing

  There are some cases where the popularity sorting is not working
  correctly - this seems to be connected to the way we do bins when
  applying the popularity sort.

  As an example - searching for "sound" always puts "Sound Recorder" as
  the first result, even though "Sound" is used more frequently, same
  goes for "office", the order changes once you go from "offic" ->
  "office" and we don't want that.

  (this is caused by "Sound recorder" having a relevancy of 100 and
  "Sound" just 99, therefore they get into different bins and popularity
  is not taken into account)
