Temporarily Ignore Searchbar

[meteorquake]

Currently with the Folder Bar open you can do Ctrl-Shift Space (not sure if I set that) to ignore the folder bar selection so that the search applies to Everything. Tap it again or click in the folder bar and you reenable the folder bar criterion.

It would be good to have a similar thing with the search bar. Currently there's a command to clear the search bar but what would be good is a command to ignore the search bar content (treat it as blank) without clearing it which one can assign to a shortcut, then hit the shortcut again or click into the search bar and it's reenabled. When it's ignored perhaps it could go a dim colour or have some other indicator although in practice I think people will simply remember they've ignored it as it will usually be momentary unless some distraction calls the person away from the computer at that moment.

Perhaps it already exists, but I couldn't spot it.

I typically do one the following:

Cut the text in the search box to the clipboard.
Paste the clipboard back into the search box.

-or-

Delete the text in the search box.
Hit Alt + backspace (or Ctrl + Z) to undo.



I will consider an option to toggle the search.
Thank you for the suggestion.
