Description Mohammed Sadiq 2017-03-31 13:20:42 UTC 
The backspace key have no action in search.

How to reproduce:

1. Open Totem -> Videos tab (or Channels tab)
2. Press search button (Ctrl-F)
3. Type something in the search entry
4. Press backspace to remove the entered string.

Result:
The typed characters are not removed. Though the delete button in the entry removes the whole text at once.

I'm using totem 3.22.1 from Debian GNU/Linux (testing).

Thanks

TotemSearchEntry isn't a GtkSearchEntry, so gtk_search_entry_handle_event() is never called:
https://git.gnome.org//browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtksearchbar.c#n220

We'd need to implement something similar without having to rewrite that code in totem itself.
