Description Emmanuel Pacaud 2012-09-07 06:07:08 UTC 
In overview mode, it's already possible to launch new application instance/window in a different workspace using ctrl+click on application icon.

I think it would be nice to also be able to do this action by using ctrl+enter in the search entry.

Also, I'd love to be able to launch a new application instance/window in the current workspace using shift+icon click or shift+enter in search entry.

Guess what Ctrl+enter does :-)

What about the shift proposal ?

See bug 633671, in particular comment #4.
Comment 4 Emmanuel Pacaud 2012-09-08 14:15:38 UTC 
Ok, ctrl+(enter|click) does create a new instance in the current workspace (I'm sorry I didn't notice it :( ).

But a keyboard shortcut for the click behaviour (new instance in a new workspace) is still missing. I don't think it counts a a new feature, like what is described in #633671.

"for the click behaviour" I mean "for the middle click behaviour"
