Quick Filter Bar persists when folder changed

About two weeks ago, an update (not sure which) seems to have changed the behaviour of the the Quick Filter Bar (The one which says Filter These Messages). It used to get cleared if the user clicked off the folder they were searching to another one, which was a simple way to clear it when finished. Now the search is persistent and has to be cleared with the tiny X on the right of the bar. Personally I find that this is such a nuisance that I'm finding myself trying to avoid using the Quick Filter Bar because it's too fiddly to clear. Please can you re-instate the old system that cleared the Quick Filter Bar when the folder focus is changed, or provide this an option, or some other really quick keystroke to clear the Quick Filter Bar which is less fiddly than hitting that tiny X.

Thanks and regards,

 Colin McCormick

That only happens if the pin icon is pressed on the Quick Filter Bar (see picture).
