It would be nice to allow search and launch rapidly, some ideas here from
the GNOME shell:

>
> You get to the search by using the 'windows-key' or by going to the hot
> corner [1]. When you type the number of items that do match are shown. The
> currently selected item (highlighted) can be launched directly by hitting
> enter/return [2]. You can go to the next item by using the up/down keys [3].
> We could do something similar - just that we use the greying effect to show
> matches and we could draw the hover-over rectangle for the currently
> selected item that will launch immediately when you click enter.
>

Yes, would be a nice feature. I think we can implement it in another patch.
