Ubuntu HUD Demo by Shuttleworth
Shuttleworth said of the HUD, "This concept of 'intent-driven interface' has been a primary theme of our work in the Unity shell, with dash search as a first class experience pioneered in Unity. Now we are bringing the same vision to the application, in a way which is completely compatible with existing applications and menus."
In a video demo, Canonical shows how its HUD can interact with third party applications as well as built-in Ubuntu functionality. Examples of third party application interaction include Mozilla's Firefox and Thunderbird, but most surprisingly there is a command-line version of the HUD.
