Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

When using the quick search, remember the search terms when navigating between pages.

Use case

Example: you have a switch with 48 ports and you need to document a Vlan virtual interface. You go to the device's "Interfaces" tab and search for "vlan" to check which vlan interfaces are already present. It's not there so you add it. Once you've added the interface, the quick search input is empty again, so you have to type "vlan" again:

Database changes

None. Most straightforward method is probably to just store the search term in the browser's localStorage.

External dependencies

None
