Bug Description
See the attached screenshot for an example of where the BAMF program has returned results for a very basic search for the single letter 'f' and the results contain any program which the letter f appears in either the comment or name without any sort of priority.
The search should be reconfigured so priority is given to matches which are an exact start-string case-insensitive match. This way intuitive results would float to the top and results matching by comment would still be available.

The matching in the places are done by unity-place- application through zeitgeist. Bamf is only used for matching running applications in the launcher.
