Especially with no keyboard shortcuts for custom-installed Lenses, I thought it would be nice for the Dash to always open the last used Lens for me (instead of the default Home/Global Lens). Is it possible to achieve this?
Generalization:
Maybe the Dash interaction could be enhanced to make it more keyboard-friendly overall.
As a keyboard-centric user, I find the following flow slightly irksome:
Keyboard :: To open the Dash via the Super key THEN Mouse :: To select the desired lens. (Control-Tab is tedious with 10+ lenses installed) THEN Keyboard :: To type my query THEN Mouse :: To select the desired result. (Cursor keys are difficult when there are a lot of search results).
Just a thought.

You might try to the Dconf Editor to change the Unity Lenses. UbuntuForums.org has some posts about it.

The Wiki of Ubuntu.com has also some information about lenses.... and how to build one yourself.. If you have some spare time laying around somewhere, give building a lens a shot.
