Bug Description

Flash phone.
Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch) - armhf (20130828.1)
Swipe to the Applications scope.

Click applications scope
Click disable
Click dash plugins
Click disable

Now you can't re-enable them. We shouldn't provide a method to get someone backed into a corner like this.

You also can't search for them to re-enable the scopes.

If it is fixed, how do I re-enable scopes after turning them all off in my ignorance?

Just answered my own question:

DConf-editor>com>unity>lenses>disabled scopes - just highlight them all, backspace, leave the entry reading [ ]

Reboot, done.

Sorry to waste your time.
