Hi!

There seems to be a problem of destructive interference
between the Tree window and the Search function. This was
obviously introduced between 3.6.24, which works as expeced
and the current cvs.

The cvs behaves like this:

1. Open a base
2. Search Header, use a players name
    Ignore Filter is set
    [Search...]

    The game list will contain all games of this specific
    player and only games of this player, works as expected.

3. Open the Tree window
    Ctrl-T opens the tree window

    Now the game list gets populated with other games. This
    might be intended(?)

4. Search Header, use a players name, the same as above
    Ignore Filter is set
    [Search...]

    The game list will contain a lot of games but not match
    the search entered. I think this is not intended.

5. Close the tree window

6. Search Header, use a players name
    Ignore Filter is set
    [Search...]

    The game list will contain all games of this specific
    player and only games of this player, works as expected.

IMHO it would be quite interesting to get the tree for the
player searched, ie. some sort of restricted tree with the
additional criteria by e.g. the header search. (This was
actually not even my intention, but it would come in handy
for the things I like to do right now. ;)

Anyway, to overwrite the header search by the tree window is
IMHO confusing, at the least. It just took me some time to
fiddle that it is the tree window that acutually inhibits
header searches and I also came to this conclusion only
cause I know that the code was changed here recently. IMHO
it would even be more consistent to close the tree window in
case of a header search is performed to get a correct result
of the search.
