[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1192081@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm seeing rightly on forums and generally the Internet that 100scopes
previews are slow, combined with the fact that we now have the left
click showing the preview by default frustrate a lot of users.

On my beefy machine (i7, 8G of rams), the preview for an application
takes 3/4s to show, you can't do anything meanwhile as there is no
button to launch the application (because you didn't double click, just
left click and thought "argh, I should have double click").

Because of this, we are making the 1st landing of 100 scopes experience
bad and we should fix it (at least, in that applicatoin lens) by either
preloading the software-center-dbus (/usr/share/software-
center/software-center-dbus) daemon (we can't have it always running as
it's taking over 100MB of memory) when hovering an app lens result, or
when it's the first result (so can be directly triggered by pressing
[Enter])
