            Bug ID: 494018
           Summary: Difficult to edit a search term in Dolphin, trailing
                    spaces removed as you type
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Keywords: regression
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: tagwerk19 at innerjoin.org
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY: 
    If type several search terms into Dolphin's search box it trim trailing
spaces as you
    type. If you type "one two" you get "onetwo" or occasionally "one two
three" you
    get "one twothree".

    Applies to baloosearch when searching for content.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1...
    Move to a folder indexed by Baloo, select "Content" search and "From here" 

2...
    Type a search phrase such as "one two three" 

3...
    Look at what you've just typed...

OBSERVED RESULT:
    Dolphin will trim trailing spaces as you type, refreshing the search box
and window
    title. It's possible, with care, to cursor back and forth in your typed
phrase and
    insert the spaces again.

EXPECTED RESULT:
    Don't prematurely trim trailing spaces, it seems likely that the something
is
    trying to sanitise the input as it passes it to the search provider but
this should
    not overwrite the search terms as the user is typing them. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS:
    Neon Unstable
    Dolphin: 24.11.70
    Plasma: 6.1.90
    Frameworks: 6.7.0
    Qt: 6.7.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    This is probably a regression, wasn't there in KF5. It happens on both
Wayland and X.

    It may be that it needs to be moved somewhere else, it's not an issue with
    Dolphin per se...
