When I press (or touch) launch it should launch the application. May be a bug though.
The whole concept of Gnome-Do is that it is entirely keyboard driven. This actually makes it simpler and requires less steps to use. To me having to use the mouse to interact with it would be a regression. I may as well just be clicking icons in a panel. Using the mouse would undermine the simplicity and elegance of Gnome-Do (or any similar launcher). And I really never found Gnome-Do confusing to use.
