I've just checked vivid and it's still the case. Note, the original
steps to reproduce no longer apply because youtube scope doesn't seem to
be producing previews for channels with 'Search' button. I'm not sure
which of the existing scopes exhibit it offhand.
I've reproduced it again with slightly modifed mediascanner-video scope
(added a 'Search' button to its preview). After some more tests I can
conclude the following about preview buttons which have uris set to
canned queries (should execute search):
* it works, when it points to a different scope than the one displaying the
preview.
* it doesn't work when it points to the same scope. In such case the search is
executed in the background, but preview is not dismissed. After exiting the
preview manually one can see new search results proving the query was in fact
executed.
Here is the change I applied to mediascanner scope for reproducing;
change uri to "scope://mediascanner-music?q=" to see it working as
expected because different scope needs to be opened).

[Dash] Activating a preview with a scope URI for the current scope
doesn't send you back to the results view

Bug description:
You'll have to compile (prototype) the Youtube scope from source
(https://launchpad.net/unity-scope-youtube/), as it's not in distro
yet.
Basically the workflow is:
1) Search for something that has a result with a scope URI for the current
scope. In the case of Youtube, search for "queenofficial" to get Queen's music
channel.
2) Preview the first item (the channel itself), and click the search button.
3) This runs a new query for the current scope, but doesn't switch away from
the preview view).
4) You will see a preview of the first video in the new results list.
Like when searching other scopes, the view should be returned to the
results list, instead of saying in the preview "view".
