Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1. open Nautilus
2. type alt+f2 and enter r to reload Gnome-Shell
3. press the superkey to open Gnome-Shells search screen, type "files" to find 
Nautilus, and press enter
4. note that even though Nautilus is still open and visible in the "superkey 
thumbnail" dialog, selecting it from the search result does not bring it to the 
foreground and it stays hidden

Expected result: existing Nautilus window should be brought to the
foreground when selected from Gnome-Shell's search dialog

Actual result: Gnome-Shell's search dialog closes after selecting
Nautilus to launch, but existing Nautilus window remains hidden

Note, the reload seems to be what triggers this bug. After you manually
select Nautilus from the thumbnail screen, it then can be brought to the
foreground by selecting it from the search dialog.
