Comment 5 for bug 1111808

Nicolò: OTOH, it would increase code in Unity Dash for very little gain, and probably negative gain. Firstly it's a 90%/10% thing; the legal notice is not frequently used, but still needs to be reliable and easy to interact with when required. The current situation of using a Web browser would seem to meet that require elegantly.

Second, the concept of the Dash is a search enabler, rather than a content interface; so you pop the Dash overlay, /find/ what you want, and launch to that task or content. /Doing work/ inside Unity Dash would defeat that premise, because you may not recursively pop up the Unity Dash over itself.

The current setup is, I believe, more functional and consistent. For example, by opening the legal task in a web browser, the user can then be reading that legal text, discover a term they are not sure about, and then bring up the Unity Dash to locate the legal phase via the Legal Eagle(tm) Dictionary Lens from Legal&Legal&Sons(tm).

If you were performing the task within Unity Dash itself, recursion would not be possible, and the user would be at a disadvantage.
