Code review comment for lp:~mvo/software-center/appview-tweaks

Hi Michael. Thanks for this, I like it very much! I just have one small detail that I am not sure that we really want to do. It's the part of softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/panes/availablepane.py where we reset to the default search mode every time we change the category (the change at line 693). I think that it's preferable to just remove this piece, so that even when navigating between categories we retain the search criteria that the user has set.

I personally prefer this and I also think that it is in the spirit of the fix for bug 966878. Note the comment in the bug description "This does not occur when browsing catagories and it seems to remember the setting fine". We will be breaking that expectation if we do this reset.

Please let me know if you agree or not. Other than this one detail to be decided, I am all for merging this branch! I'll set it to approved in any case.

Thanks again, Michael!
