It's mostly pixel shifting. The section header (e.g. "Applications",
"Settings", "Recent Items") used to show the total number of matches and
"launch an external program to display all results" when clicked - the
latter was mostly unimplemented though, as there are no programs to
actually do that (with the exception of "Settings", where
gnome-control-center was launched). Given the sad state of the
implementation, I doubt that many current users are even aware of it -
it certainly is not documented in gnome-user-docs (and shouldn't be
either in my opinion if the patch is delayed post-3.0)
