            Bug ID: 405343
           Summary: Typing invokes filter function (like Gnome Nautilus)
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 18.04.3
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: bars: filter
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: leftcr...@tutanota.com
  Target Milestone: ---

The default typing behavior isn't ideal. To get a file by typing, you have to
type the first characters of the file really fast. It would be better typing
automatically invoked the filter function, which is much more user friendly.

Pressing control + I every time you want to drill down to a file isn't ideal. 

To see the proposed behavior in action, open Nautilus and start typing. You
will get a list of search results, with the ones from the current directory
appearing first.

It would be tough to implement efficient type-to-search on KDE, so instead i
propose type-to-filter (or type-to-search on the current directory).
