Bug Description

Binary package hint: tracker

tracker does not give results in a smart way.
It should give exact matches at the beginning of results!

Yea, tracker results are pretty poor and also displayed poorly at the moment. Deskbar+tracker is an improvement imo, but still could be better.

Yes, tracker needs a better scoring function for results.
