I observed that,
If you first open Dash home, i.e. hit super key,then you hit Alt-F2, you won't see this bug.
I think whenever the dash is displayed for the first time, it shows 'search'.
I can' t reproduce this bug, if i run the places from QtCreator.

FWIW this happens in Unity-3D too, if the first thing you do after logging in is press Alt+F2 it shows search, afterwards it shows "Run Command"

This behavior is only reproducible when places app is not running yet. It is not started by default.
If you kill unity-2d-places and then run "qdbus com.canonical.Unity2d.Dash /Dash com.canonical.Unity2d.Dash.activateLens commands.lens", dbus will launch places on demand and the bug is reproducible.
