Title:
  evolution search bar shows typed data from other applications on
  startup

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I start evolution, and then switch to another window like a web
  browser.  While I'm typing something into the other window, evolution
  grabs the focus, and some of the typed data appears in the evolution
  search bar for several seconds.  Then, the search bar is cleared as
  evolution finishes starting.  The problem is that from this point
  forward, this same text appears in the search bar for several seconds
  EVERY time I start evolution.  This has been a security issue for me,
  as on one occasion I was typing a password in another window while
  evolution started - a portion of an old password now appears in the
  search bar of evolution each and every time I start evolution.
