Maybe I'm misunderstanding here but the desired behavior is in fact how it works for me on Fedora 20, Geary 0.4.2. Was this fixed and never closed?
Chris, are you using Geary with only a single account? In that case, this problem doesn't manifest itself. It's when you have multiple accounts and you search while in an Inbox located under "Inboxes". When you clear the search bar, you're returned to the Inbox under the account name, not Inboxes. Sorry -- the description should've been more clear about this.
Yes, just a single account. Thanks for clarification!
This is still true in current Geary. The new sidebar of bug 730712 might solve this problem.
Resolving as obsolete all bugs that should be resolved by the sidebar redesign (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730712). I'd mark them as a duplicate, but bz won't let me :( Apologies for the noise.
