Applications available to download IMO, should only bring back results when performing a search in the home lens and by clicking on specific filters in the apps lens.

i.e.:  if an specific or related searched app is not installed, it will then be suggested for download.

currently this does not happen when performing a search in the home lens where is most useful.
