Errrr, we can try, but my Javascript's not up to speed (and tracking
down the Params issue was the first look I'd ever had at the gnome-shell
API)...  5:)

I already tried emitting the "search-completed" signal with an
appropriate set of additional results, but I wasn't sure the lists I was
handing back contained the right thing, and it didn't seem to affect the
selection.

I'm happy to test out any patches you may have for the extension, but I
wouldn't really know where to start making a fix on my own.  Let me know
what you want to do next?

Title:
  [Patch] Enter doesn't launch applications in gnome-shell
  zeitgeistsearch extension

Status in Zeitgeist Extensions:
  New

Bug description:
  When using the ZeitgeistSearch gnome-shell extension, there is a
  silent error that occurs in activateResult for the App- and Settings-
  AsyncSearchProviders.  This is due to a call to Params, which hasn't
  been defined.  I've attached a patch which solves this particular
  problem by defining Params at the top of the file.

  I'm also working on gnome bug 662341 which is related, whereby adding
  results asynchronously means that they are never selected first in the
  list, so you can't simply start typing an application and press Enter
  to start it.  By default, all the asynchronous providers return an
  empty list as initialResults, and gnome-shell doesn't update the
  selection when new results are added, meaning the search buttons (such
  as Wikipedia) are always selected by default.  I don't know whether
  that's best handled in the extension or in gnome-shell, so please let
  me know if I should file a new bug here instead.

  If there's any other information I can provide, or tests I can run,
  please let me know...
