[Sugar-devel] Sugar App Launcher

[James Cameron]

G'day Sebastian,

Good start.  Instead, let's integrate into Sugar;

1.  in home view, which at the moment has favourites view and list
view icon [1], add a second list view which parses and lists the
translated application names of all desktop files, along with any
iconography,

2.  if an entry is clicked, start the desktop file,

3.  add a favourite star next to each desktop file, and if a desktop
file in the list is marked as favourite, then add it to the favourites
view, preserving the state in the favorite_activities file,

4.  if a desktop file in the favourites view is clicked, start the
desktop file,

5.  extend the scope of the search to include desktop files,

6.  make no journal change when a desktop file is started,

7.  fix any frame, modal or focus bugs.
