Somebody asked for Ubiquity in Awesomebar. Somebody else said that Ubiquity isn't like Linux, because Linux commands are cryptic and Ubiquity is expressive. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ubiquity-in-awesomebar/">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ubiquity-in-awesomebar/</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla/topics/make_ubiquity_the_address_bar">http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla/topics/make_ubiquity_the_address_bar</a> I was going the emacs and vim way... but we're making ubuntu for the masses... so I noticed that we should go the ubiquity way... hit Ctrl once, Dash opens, type S, see Save, discover ShotWell, but Save is already selected, because we already decided that Save is the default match for S, hit enter, saves hit Ctrl once, Dash opens, type C, see Copy, discover Compiz Config, but Copy is already selected, because we already decided that Copy is the default match for C, hit enter, copies hit Ctrl once, Dash opens, type F, see Find, discover Firefox, but Find is already selected, because we already decided that Find is the default match for F, hit enter, finds What do you say?

I thought about creating a shortcut for Dash, for Ubuntu Software Store, for System Settings, but I quickly run into conflicts. If CTRL+S is save, what is System Settings? So we have to go like the emacs way, but better. We hit ctrl once, but we don't hold ctrl, because that toggles on keyboard shortcut mode. Calm down! When we hit s, we see save. When we hit c, we see copy. When we hit f, we see find. It's all there, the old shortcuts. Going back, we hit ctrl once, then we type Ubu, then see what we're typing, then see Ubuntu One and Ubuntu Software Center, then hit down, then Ubuntu Software Center is selected, then hit enter, then Ubuntu opens Ubuntu Software Center for us. That's very expressive, so that is very good, because we need to express intent. What do you say?
