Only people will complain that it steals space from tags :)
The section selection will stay. Under "Global search" I mean that search in all sections would be synchronized, so that when you switch to another section, the contents of the search box won't change.
Actually I'm already thinking of doing global search by default.
Would appreciate your thoughts on this here
No, sorry, currently we are not planning to implement this feature since the number of votes is very small. Have you tried using 3rd party application for spellchecking like aspell?
Thomas, thanks for suggestion, but could you please re-formulate the idea's title? "New search" is very unclear. The people should be able to read the title and decide to vote.
I suggest something like "GUI option to reset all search filters on new search" or "Make resetting filters on new search the default behavior". Thanks!
What should do all the people who are used to Ctrl+N for creating new notes? Many even don't have Ins key on the keyboard, like Mac users..
