Public bug reported:
Currently individual Dash Lenses are stateful (within the session), but
the Dash Home is not. The purpose of this is to enable the Dash Home to
be used for quick retrieval by taping the Super Key and then typing a
phrase. However this functionality makes the Dash Home and Dash Lenses
inconsistent. However there is a solution that both enables the both
the quick retrieval use case and also brings constancy to the Dash.
----------------------------------
Desired resolution:
- The Dash Home should become stateful (exactly the same as the Lenses)
- Whenever the Dash is opened, the search queries in the Dash Home and
all the Lenses are automatically selected. This means that if the user
types a letter, the search string is replaced by the letter typed.
However if the user presses the right cursor key, clicks in the search
box, etc... the search query is deselected. The user can then
adjust/add to the search query as desired.
