I am assuming that this bug refers to the quick search feature (if that is what it is called) where just starting to type a file or folder name filters names in the current folder. In which case it is not a duplicate of a long standing bug #334125 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437626) which refers to the full feature search window. However, now that the two features have been combined perhaps it is the same bug. I suggest waiting for upstream to see what happens there (if anything). Dale, If I am right in thinking this bug refers to quick search perhaps the description should be clarified.
