Bug - Bridge 15 beta - QuickSearch box deselected after use

I frequently search for multiple items in a row, so much so that I wrote a custom script to search for a list of items. But I also commonly search for 3-4 items, just typing them in one by one.

In Bridge 12 and below, when typing in a search term and hitting Return, the QuickSearch box remains highlighted so another term can be typed quickly. In Bridge 15 beta, the box is deselected each time so the user has to keep clicking with the mouse to enter multiple terms. This is REALLY poor and user-hostile design. :sigh:
