[Bug 61806] Search does not initiate from current directory

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Steps:

1) Navigate to a directory in the filesystem that is not your home directory
2) Click on the "Search" button.
3) Enter the name of the file to search for
4) Hit enter to start search.

Nautilus will then automatically begin the search in your home directory
regardless of which directory you have navigated to.  If you wish to
choose your current directory to be the starting point, you have to then
manually select the Location drop-down box and navigate once more.  This
should not be the intended behavior and is counterintuitive.  The
default should be that the search starts from the current directory and
recurses downward in the tree.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
