Image showing the problem.

Version:           2.2.0 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                All

When switching between most left sidebar options while in 'View Image' mode the current image preview remains, although the thumbnails and any image info visible in the right sidebar are removed. This is confusing because it seems like the image is still selected, but nothing can be done to the preview. Additionally, click on the preview image causes it to disappear.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open digiKam anew
2. Click on an image thumbnail to switch to 'Image View'
3. Click on any other left sidebar tabs that do not already have a search filter applied (on a freshly started digiKam this seems to be Timeline, People, Fuzzy Search)

Actual Results:  
Preview image remains

Expected Results:  
Preview image should have been removed

I am using Full Size Preview images if that makes a difference.

If a search is already saved, such as a previous search in 'Search' then the window is cleared correctly. This is easiest to reproduce starting from the Album view and switching to Timeline where no date is selected or People.
