Mike I'm probably not explaining my situation clearly.
I realise that when I rebuild a search list I lose the context of the previous version of the list. It is as if it were a completely new list (in fact, it is a new list). My problem is that I don't want to do the usual thing with a new search list and start at the beginning. I want to start somewhere in the middle. I want some way to say "Start with this person and then go forward or backwards from here". The only way I can achieve this is to start at the front and "find next" a couple of hundred times. Saving and restoring the list would achieve this, provided the context of the list was saved and restored together with the list of entries. The only issue would be how to handle folk in the list who were deleted before the list was restored; but that must be handled now, since I could delete someone who is in the current list. I believe that it is a bug for the context not to be set to the point where you jump into the list. I'll report it as such and will suggest the save restore feature as an enhancement.
