[Bug 1238979] Re: Scope result models are cleared on updates

 

I agree that accidental activation is a problem. It's not nice if I tap
something only to find that, a split second before my finger touched the
glass, the list was updated and I've activated something else.

If we animate new items into view, we have to make sure that a new item
cannot displace an already-displayed item. Otherwise, if I have, say,
five items on the list and I want to activate the fifth item, and now a
new item slots in a position 3, shifting everything below it down, I'll
end up accidentally activating the fourth item.

I think the key to making sure that accidental activation doesn't happen
is to enforce that an existing item cannot change physical location when
a new item arrives.

  The result models are cleared when updated, which causes abrupt

  without clearing them :/
