Bug description:
  The Unity Dash is slated to replace file browsers as the primary way
  users find and access data. Currently, it is possible for third-party
  applications to request a file browser open, looking for a certain
  extension of file. It should also be possible for third-party
  applications to request the Dash open, looking at a certain scope,
  lens, and filters-combination. Ideally, libunity would provide a D-bus
  API for such a task.

  This was originally an AskUbuntu question, but since sabdfl encouraged
  me to file a bug for this problem, I figure I might as well. The
  question  [ http://askubuntu.com/q/72266/24694 ] provides one example
  of how this API might be used.
