Bug Description

X-GNOME-Keywords is a desktop field used in the gnome-control-center and probably gnome-shell (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609702) to specify search keywords for applications.

It would be nice if Unity used the same key.

If Unity used these keys, Universal Access, Orca, etc. would show up when users type in "accessibility". As it is, they show up through typing "access" but if they are typing fast enough not to spot this (or otherwise can't see it, given I'm referring to accessibility...) but as soon as the user goes for that next "i" in "accessibility" they all disappear.

I guess we want X-AppInstall-Keywords as well, to match gnomine as 'minesweeper' etc

XDG has accepted a standard key "Keywords" now, which has the same syntax as X-GNOME-Keywords. So ideally that would be supported too. Should I open a new bug for that or can we re-use this one?
