Awesome! it is working better like you said. Another cool feature would be if you could tab through and/or use arrow keys to make a selection.
Yes! I had thought in this when I have time I'll to try it

Hey, this is really cool, but I'm having a problem- nothing really happens when I type an app name. It seems like it should select an app if I type the name.
Running from cl shows "/etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu Not found!", not sure if thats important. Also I had to install "gnome-menus" for it to launch.
edit - To clarify, the search box doesn't do anything
I still need to work in the search box!

The work you have done is appreciated but......many/most of us here run openbox precisely because it DOESN'T have desktop icons by default! Or can you hide/unhide your launcher, in which case it looks quite cool
you can add this launcher in your panel creating a .desktop file when you click on it the launcher run and show when you chose a app the launcher hide and exit
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Menu
Comment=Menu
GenericName=Menu
Icon= <<Insert your icon path here>>
Exec= <<Insert script path here>>
If your panel is tint2 you only need add a line in your config file:
# Each launcher_item_app must be a full path to a .desktop file
launcher_item_app = /home/<<user>>/<<path>>/menu.desktop
In resources is based in oblogout code! and i think that is lightweight... and if you not have active compositing use pil for render instead of cairo...
but still i need to improved the speed of charging... I think that I can open the menu from cache for more speed...

you can link another xdg-menu for example lxde-menu or debian menu with ln command
sudo ln -s /etc/xdg/menus/lxde-applications.menu /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu
