+1. Awesome. That's the kind of creative user-oriented efficiency which we need for TB. :)

Can we work out a name and values for that pref, and unintrusive (contextual) UI?

Perhaps something like this?

mail.quickfilterbar.autohide=0|1|2
0=hide by ESC (default)
1=auto-hide after use
2=never hide (or could/should this be -1)?

[Edited:]
0 = never hide (or could/should this be -1?)
1 = hide manually with ESC (default)
2 = auto-hide after every use
