Yes search and favorites use is exactly that i do, but the problem with this
argument is than in fact you said it is usable if you dont use it...

For example I'm thinking of new user that want to discover is new interface
and computer apps without having any idea of what he will do... he just want
to discover and enjoy the new hot kde stuff : he can't do it easily, not
really good for a first impression.

I'm totally agree than there is a lot of other way to starts apps and than
whatever you do with apps menu it is not the better way.

But this apps menu is the worst  than i ever seen, sorry.

Best regards

Loic
