Bug Description

Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. Alt+F2 on a standard ubuntu install
2. Start typing totem

Expected results:
Once you finish typing totem, the "totem" entry is there allowing you to start the application.

Actual results:
Once you press "m", the totem entry disappears leaving you with the applications that start with "totem" but not the totem itself - "totem-audio-previewer", "totem-video-indexer", "totem-audio-thumbnailer".

The same can be seen for unity (not that you will want to run it this way) and other "apps" that have "app-something" application too.
