Is anybody currently working on integrating a FAYT aka FAST text
search button/field featuring the incremental search algorithm used in
the Run Application dialog into the Applications menu already??

right now, Application Search is hidden under Applications > Accessories .
i would like to see it above the 8 categories.

One could also argue, Ubuntu Software Center should be merged with it.

in that FAYT text search button / field one could integrate
application and file search in one.
i think with the right hierarchy and inheritance of topic in an
interactive dialog resulting from a query in that field, one could
already access tagged files, folders and such information.

this would help with integrating Ubuntu's current status with the
backend power and comfort of use GNOME Activity Journal offers.
is there a simple way of modifying some script or .desktop files to
achieve this on my own here?
