When you press Alt-F2 in the classic Ubuntu desktop, you can type 'apt:packagename' and Ubuntu Software Center will open and offer to install the package.

This no longer happens in Unity's Alt-F2 function. I'd rather like this functionality back, to speed up package installs. Now that I try, the Alt-F2 in Unity doesn't open ANY sort of URLs. But I really just want apturls to work again inside the Alt-F2 thingy.
