After looking at the code of shell plugin and some more debugging I
found the responsible snippet of code in the plugin (scope.cpp):
bool containsDepartments = m_rootDepartment.get() != nullptr;
// design decision - no navigation when doing searches
containsDepartments &= m_searchQuery.isEmpty();
if (containsDepartments != m_hasNavigation) {
m_hasNavigation = containsDepartments;
Q_EMIT hasNavigationChanged();
}
if (!containsDepartments && !m_currentNavigationId.isEmpty()) {
m_currentNavigationId = "";
Q_EMIT currentNavigationIdChanged();
}
Unfortunately that means we cannot pass department and non-empty query
string because search needs to be global, and not within a department
(design decision affecting all scopes) and shell plugin resets
department id if that happens. I think this behavior of plugin is
questionable and needs to be re-considered, but any change here affects
all scopes.
The fix for this particular bug should therefore happen in mediascanner
scope.
