Public bug reported:

Firstly, this isn't about "type quickly, hit enter without looking, and
instead of e.g. running firefox you get fidentify".  I'm sure you're
already aware of that.  Instead -

1. Log into Ubuntu as a guest user.  Either Ubuntu or Ubuntu 2D session will do.
2. As soon as the dock appears, bring up the dash with alt+f2
3. Start typing immediately, e.g. "xterm"

"no results could be found".  Try again, and it works properly.  (xterm
is always installed by ubuntu-desktop).

I've also noticed occaisionally that I'm unable to close the dash using
the Escape key.  I think you can reproduce this with the fresh-login
method, but different timing.  Wait for long enough that it shows a
result after typing "xterm", then hit Escape once to clear "xterm", then
try hitting Escape again and see if it works or not.
