Title:
  Typeahead search entry not persistent while receiving input in Icon
  View

Status in Nautilus:
  Fix Released
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  While in Icon View, the search entry typeahead that appears when you
  begin typing disappears very quickly, irrespective of the user's
  typing. It lasts less than a second, not long enough to type more than
  two characters, and is difficult to bring back up.

  This problem only occurs in Icon View and Compact View.

  How to reproduce:

  1. Open nautilus.
  2. Enter Icon view in an empty folder
  3. Create three folders, LongName1, LongName2, LongName3.
  4. Make sure that the focus is on Nautilus.
  5. Begin typing LongName3.

  What is expected: The helpful search entry will pop up, allowing you
  to type the name of LongName3, and selecting it for you.

  What actually happens: The search entry shows up, highlights LongName1
  as it is first in the dictionary order, then disappears around the
  letter 'n', and you are forced to try to retype LongName3.

  After reading the source somewhat in Nautilus to better understand the
  problem, I rewrote this bug and provided what I suppose is a more
  readable summary.
