[Vseerror <691380@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Surprisingly I'm pretty much liking the addon. One nit is if I filter on
X in tab A and then on Y in tab B, that Y is shown in tab A when I go
back to A. Even though A is still filtered on X.

That said, this bug seems to have gone off the rails, starting in
comment 115 - 117, and 124. Let me point out that *Blake didn't start
this*, and the direction wasn't brought back in focus by anyone back
then, until ~comment 129, that the addon doesn't focus on what you
(Charles) want.

STM the current addon focused on reunification and it's conversation
should probably go in a different bug. Not that it will change the
direction of the addon - which seems clear enough to me - but it may
help get this bug back on topic. How quickly it progresses is a
different matter.

  Quick Search  Filter should be moveable

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Today I updated lucid 3.0.4 TB to 3.1.7 from security.  I never liked
  the new "smart" search feature but relied mostly on filtering on To,
  CC and recipient.  I had put the search field for that on the menu bar
  so no further screen real estate was used on my netbook.  3.1.7 now
  introduces a UI regression in that that search field is used solely
  for the dumb "smart" search that opens a tab to waste even more screen
  space.  To use the search that I care about I have to use the quick
  search bar, more lost screen space.  And when I actually use it it
  opens another bar to filter and by then I can't even see my messages
  any longer.

  Seriously, netbooks are here to stay.  What were the UI devs thinking
  looking at their 28" TFT display all day?
