Sure, it makes sense. It's not really changing much, only removing the loader. The loader did make things slightly more complex so I can imagine this working better. The whole ` Component.onCompleted: {` bit is what gives it the focus. Having the focus there (which is where it used to be in some older version) makes it a bit harder to navigate the central view with the arrows, so it's a matter of really really wanting to search first, which I think makes a lot of sense. As is master right now, ctrl+f does give the focus to the search bar.
