I use the Unity Revamped package for my Unity interface. I have noticed that, however, this behavior exists for any account on my computer, even guest, on BOTH the Revamped and the Canonical release of Unity. Here is a link to what it looks like, because it is hard to describe it. I don't know of anyone else who has this issue. I am running Unity 5.16 on Ubuntu 12.04.

As an aside, I also have noticed this behavior with a fresh install of 12.10 Beta 1 on a separate partition.

Is there a shell-independent HUD-like menu search tool for Xfce/GNOME/Cinnamon?

as seen on Ask Ubuntu - Search for 'Ask Ubuntu'
The Ubuntu Heads-Up Display (HUD) - you love it or you hate it. Personally I rather like a classic desktop, so I use Xfce or GNOME-fork Cinnamon, and I'd like to keep those menu's where they are. But the HUD is pretty awesome when your menus are complex and you forgot where an option sits. This makes… >>> More
