Search, find, select entry, cancel search behavior suggestion

I have a simple suggestion for the search behavior.



I just did a search for a newly created entry, found it, then selected it in the left pane of filtered choices. Then I cancelled the search out by clicking the small x in the search field.



The result was my chosen entry in the list was deselected and I was brought back up to the top of the list, with my first entry selected.



Why not keep focus on the searched-for entry when I de-activate the search text? I felt like it should "stick" on my explicitly-chosen entry in the list instead of "reset" to the top.



This doesn't happen 100% of the time though - sometimes the filtered entry I select [i]stays selected[/i] but upon clearing the search the list goes back to the top, in which case I need to scroll down to find it again.



Just a low priority small annoyance! Awesome app!

    Hey notbrain,



    Welcome to the forums! <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />



    This is a fair point, and something we can re-evaluate after we put out a couple of bigger bugs. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Thank you for the suggestion!
