Review request for KDevelop.


Changes
-------

Remove the applyFilters(), it introduces a bug which prevents opening entries other than the first ;p


Description
-------

I find the recently introduced 150ms-timeout for searching quickopen very annoying, as I loved the instant feedback quickopen had before. It is clear that something like the timer is necessary for large projects, because the items cannot be searched in real-time; however, for smaller projects (and especially for the outline filter!) the additional delay is just plain unnecessary.

This patch adjusts the delay to the amount of items to be searched; it is 0 if the amount of items to be searched is less than 5000, and reaches its maximum of 150ms (the old default value) if there's more than 50.000 items. Those values are just random, and better suggestions are welcome.

An immediately noticeable positive effect of this patch (in every project) is that the outline widget now again always provides instant, smooth feedback.
