            Bug ID: 397092
           Summary: Retain prior search when KRunner is re-opened
           Product: krunner
           Version: 5.13.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It would be nice if KRunner remembered the previous search text when it's
closed and re-opened. The previous search text shuold be selected so you can
immediately start typing to replace it with a new search.

Reasons why this would be handy behavior:
- Lets you return to the results of a previous search if they would still be
relevant (e.g. you searched for an item, opened one of the search results, then
discovered that it wasn't the item you were looking for)
- Makes it easier to use KRunner as a calculator for complex expressions where
you're updating the expression in response to data in another app (currently,
interacting with the app closes KRunner and clears the mathematical expression
you were working on)
- Allows you to use KRunner as a handy systemwide text field for the purpose of
building up strings (sounds weird, but I use Spotlight for this all the time in
macOS)
