Nice ... and you don't even have to use the literal name of the app.
For example, icedove and iceweasel both start with "ice", but you can
start typing the word "mail" or "browse" and takes you to the correct app.

I just did this:

Super + "bro" + Enter   (brought up my browser)
Super + "ma" + Enter    (brought up my mail)
Super + "t" + Enter     (brought up my terminals)

That's crazy cool.  Thanks!
