Description Andrea Bolognani 2011-04-27 21:27:27 UTC 
The Search fields handles Ctrl+A (select all) in a weird way.

For example:

1. Go to the Overview
2. Type some text (eg. “emph”)
3. Hit Ctrl+A. The typed text is highlighted
4. Start typing again (eg. “p”)

Now the window previews are displayed again, and the Search field looks inactive, as if the Overview had just been activated; the placeholder text is now “pType to search…”.
