Created attachment 135550 [details] dolphin search When doing a file search from Dolphin and using the search input field to search for example "tag:penguin", dolphin will add that tag filter to the dropdown menu, and the only way to clear it is to expand that and un-select that tag, or to quit dolphin and restart it. If you have hundreds of tags, like I do, then the dropdown menu for tags doesn't fit on the screen, and you can't clear it. There should be an easy way to reset the search. Closing just the search doesn't clear it. I think the whole tagging system could honestly use a different approach. Maybe use scrollable dropdown filters, the way digikam does it, and the top one could be an option to 'clear' or 'reset'?

You can also just delete the text "tag:jason" in the search field.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > You can also just delete the text "tag:jason" in the search field. That's the problem. It doesn't work. The tag drop down stays with tag:jason.
