Bug Description

Binary package hint: tracker

tracker search tool doesn't do dynamic search. "Search as you type" LIKE Google Desktop or BEAGLE. Wasn't tracker supposed to be a similar tool anyway. What a good job of NOT replicating the best feature. Good job Devs (sarcastic)

Why the hell would i use deskbar, when there is a tracker applet running on my taskbar (or panel) that comes up when tracker indexing is enabled. Tracker itself should do the dynamic searching.
