It is not the goal "being flexible" of this box.
It is a tool for user that can not yet write search queries to learn how
to write them. So it must be simple to reach this goal.
Moreover, the idea is that you can re-open it to improve your query
because the content stays on it (except if query is manually edited).

I can even not understand what will do the "And"/"Or" buttons.
The delete is useless because you just have to unselect the star to
acheive this behavior.
