1838520 - filter field in quick filter bar is not cleared when switching the folder

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Sören Hentzschel]

STR:

1. Make sure that the quick filter bar is enabled and that the option to keep the filter criteria when switching folders is not enabled
2. Enter something into the text field of the quick filter bar
3. Switch the folder

Actual:

The input field still contains the previously entered text but since the filter is no longer active it's very confusing.

Expected:

The input field should be empty, as it was the case in Thunderbird 102.

I backed this out, because it wasn't actually reviewed. I mixed it up with another patch that was meant to land.
