The KMail 1 quick filter also has full path information which allows for
searches based on parent folders.

For example, suppose there is a hierarchy with Personal and Work folders with
similar names:

Personal/INBOX
Personal/Archive
Work/INBOX
Work/Archive

Doing a quick search for "Archive" shows both Personal/Archive and
Work/Archive.  However, doing a quick search for "k/Archive" shows only
Work/Archive.

In addition to this, the KMail 1 quick filter will show the parent folder but
not allow it to be selected if it does not match the filter.  This allows for
rapid keyboard selection of the desired folder.

I am the original author of the quick filter functionality in KMail 1 (Bug
113759) and recollect that there are a number of subtle features that make the
search behavior effective.
