Bug Description
Remove gnome-search-tool ("Search for Files") from default install of Ubuntu
To reproduce:
1. Open the Dash and navigate to the App Lens
2. type "search" into the App Lens search box
3. You will see that a application called "Search for Files..." appears.
This application should be removed as it is confusing 3rd option for searching files that will not be supported in the future. Users are given two means of searching files in Ubuntu, file search in Nautilus and in the Dash.
Desired resolution:
- Remove "Search for Files..." application from Ubuntu

That sounds fine. I'd like to do this early in P at least. I don't think this is important enough to squeeze into Oneiric?
