I just tried recreating again what you described – and it still works on my
machine. I need to describe it in words, because, for some reason, if I take a
screenshot of Dolphin that search dropdown does not show in the screenshot.

1) go to folder that is not indexed¹
2) Ctrl+f
3) click “Everywhere”
4) click “Filter” – I see both “Filenames and content” and “File indexing” as
clickable options, and indeed pre-selected
5) search for something (e.g. “Matija”) and it works snappy and as expected

1) go to folder that is not indexed¹
2) Ctrl+f 
3) make sure that “Only here” is selected
4) click “Filter” – the “Indexed” selection is, as you describe, grayed out
5) I search for something that should require Baloo (e.g. “author:Matija”) – it
automatically switches to “Everywhere” and displays the correct results from
all the indexed files
6) click “Filter” – I see both “Filenames and content” and “File indexing” as
clickable options, and indeed pre-selected

¹ I tried this in both `~` which is explicitly not indexed, and `~/Arhiv` which
is not indexed by association of the previous not being indexed
