Description Allan Day 2014-02-07 10:01:56 UTC
Currently, when you search the view switcher is replaced by a heading. This makes the transition to the search mode more disruptive than it needs to be. It also removes a potentially useful way to exit search and switch to anther view.

The pattern we are using in the other apps is to keep the view switcher visible, but to deselect the button for the current view. You can see how this works in Software or Music.

    main: Don't hide the custom-title in search mode
    
    If we don't have a search title to set just yet. We'll use that
    to show the depressed source buttons instead.
