Summary0018103: Search is no longer part of History
DescriptionIn MediaMonkey 4 Searches are part of the History as Search results are a node visited in the Media Tree. With Search being removed in MediaMonkey 5, searches are no longer part of the History either.

This prevents quick switching between Search results and another node or between different Searches.
Steps To Reproduce1) Best would be to return the Search node in the Media Tree as it solves the most use cases
- This would allow both easy access to previous searches in the Media Tree
- and through Back/Forward via History

2) Search Drop-Down should be shown when Search receives Cursor
- Currently you have to type a character to see previous queries, but then only matching the typed character instead of most recent queries

3) Add Search results to History without Search node
- A simpler solution to implement, but addresses less use cases

Considering that the Search bar is generally used for single word searches, is an MRU really needed for it? (Note that filters do have an MRU list because they are more advanced).

I think it's something that users might initially miss until they learn to use filters. Are we still getting negative feedback on this?

There is not been a lot of negative feedback. I personally miss it, but it seems most users don't.
