Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Steps to Reproduce:
-Run a search on Nautilus. Ensure that it's a rather lengthy search.
-View the results.
-Go to the "View" menu and change the view type (between Icons, Compact and 
List)

Expected:
-For Nautilus to immediately display the files in the new display type

In reality:
-Nautilus does change the display type... but it reruns the search in the 
process. This means that if you've done a lengthy search, and you change (say) 
from Icons to List (so as better to view file properties), you'll suddenly find 
that the search results disappear. In order to see them again, you have to wait 
while the search is run again from the beginning. When the search completes and 
the files do display, they are displayed in the right view format though.
