Description Jack 2011-08-31 16:47:31 UTC 
Version:           SVN trunk (using KDE 4.6.5) 
OS:                Linux

I'm cleaning up my payee list, but deleting several and assigning the transactions to another.  I can select most of the ones I'm interested in by typing a string in the filter box above the payee list.  However, when  KMM finished deleting a payee, the screen is redrawn, and the filter box is cleared.  I'd prefer it was left as it was.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to Payee View, type something in the filter box, select a listed payee for deletion.

Actual Results:  
After the deletion, the filter box is cleared.

Expected Results:  
I would prefer the filter box to still contain the string typed before the deletion.

I'll add to this, and request that if I delete a payee, and assign its transactions to another payee, then that payee should be selected in the payee view after deletion.  

Problem:  I realize that the payee the transactions are assigned to may not be displayed according to the filter.  If the filter is dropped so the payee can be displayed - that negates my request above.  Could it be possible to select that payee, but not display it due to the filter?

This clearly needs more thought and discussion before any decision.
