Public bug reported:
When Nautilus is called from another app, e.g., Thunderbird > Attach
File to email (or Gedit > Save file) the search (via the magnifying
glass icon in the top right) only allows for 1 character to be entered,
and then jumps to the bottom right and subsequent characters appear
there.
This behavior, of course, messes up the expected search results as the
search is split into two fields/areas of the panel.
In contrast, when opening up a Nautilus browser panel directly, any
search query entered from the magnifying glass icon stays in the text
entry area as expected, and the search results work well.
The expectation is that when another app calls Nautilus, the search
function works as if it does when working directly out of Nautilus.
