Please provide option for dash to open with whatever lens was used last

[Dave Vree]

I strongly prefer to select applications to run using the mouse instead of the keyboard. This can be done in Dash, but it requires quite a few clicks.

Click 1 - Open Dash (top left of screen)
Click 2 - Select the application lens (botton middle of the screen)
Click 3 - Open the filter results panel
Click 4 - Select my categories I am interested in working with
Click 5 - Open the "see more" panel under installed
Click 6 - Click on the application I am interested in

The next time I want to run another app in the same category, I have to go through the same 6 clicks. Can you please make it so that Dash opens in the same state it was in when it was last closed? This seems to me to be a natural thing to want to have.
