panel.desktop:

Keywords=kicker,panel,kpanel,taskbar,startbar,launchbar,location,size,auto 
hide,hide,buttons,animation,background,themes,menu 
cache,cache,hidden,K-Menu,bookmarks,recent documents,quickbrowser,browser 
menu,menu,icons,tiles,applets,startup,highlight,handles,zooming icons,trusted 
applets,security level

panel_appearance.desktop:

Keywords=kicker,panel,kpanel,taskbar,startbar,launchbar,location,size,auto 
hide,hide,buttons,animation,background,themes,menu 
cache,cache,hidden,K-Menu,bookmarks,recent documents,quickbrowser,browser 
menu,menu,icons,tiles,applets,startup,highlight,handles,zooming icons,trusted 
applets,security level

Yep!  They sure look the same to me.  But that is the problem.  The synthetic search 
Keywords need to be edited a bit.
