I got this as a design requirement, as a replacement for "icon filling in the launcher" but now I'm unable to find it in the specs.
I'm asking for UX input on this, then.

Actually this does not agree with the new rationalisation of the Launcher (the Launcher will only contains apps the user has placed there themselves).
Therefore I would suggest we drop this totally.

This feature is something that could be useful on desktop where the installed application are harder to find. But on phone we have an apps feed in dash from where all the installed apps can fairly easily be found. So this is not needed for phone. We can reconsider this later when designing for other form factors.

I don't really agree with this, as a user I want to decide
