Bug Description

How to reproduce:

- launch terminal (ctrl+alt+T)
- tap "Alt" to invoke HUD
- type "system" into HUD

Actual Result:
- the first entry is "Device > System Settings"
- the icon remains to be "Terminal" which is quite confusing
- there is no change if you use arrow keys to go up and down

Expected result:
- different icon representing an action from different source than a focused window

Definitely. I was under the impression that nothing actually used the icon, so I dropped it. Will be fairly easy to add back.
