Going back to my original problem, Anthony is right. If you define a single filter you have to click 'and' or 'or' to get the filter to be copied into the search. This is easy enough when one knows, but is not exactly intuitive if one does not want to 'and' or 'or' the filter with anything (I recognise there is an implicit true). As we have a 'clear' button, maybe clicking 'query' when there is a filter defined and the search field is empty should cause the filter to be copied to the search field. Other 'naive' users like myself would probably try clicking the 'query' button but are less likely to try clicking the and/or buttons when they have a single query.
