Then there should be a way to blacklist things on a per-user basis that 
a user like myself does not want cluttering my Dash when I type "sh" for 
things other than "shutdown".

Moreover, for me it is faster to hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and click the dialog 
than it is to sift through things that begin with "sh" in the Dash on my 
personal system. Conversely, the Ctrl+Alt+Del method does not pose 
clutter with other items beginning with "sh".
