Bug Description
in unity doing alt+f2 to run a command offers suggestions, but takes them away if you get them right and there is a longer matching alternative.
"mumbl" offers mumble but "mumble" offers "mumble-overlay"
"onboar" offers onboard but "onboard" offers onboard-settings
"evinc" offers evince, but "evince" offers "evince-previewer"
so in each case actually typing the command properly means something related but useless launches, preventing good typists who know what they are doing from successfully using unity. Similar issue exists with the HUD.
