Hello,

The subject problem, or new shortfall, has been going on since the roll-out of
BrickLink 2.0.

When conducting an inventory search using the top-center field on each BrickLink
page, for example a search on "dark bluish gray wedge plate" as pictured, the
color gets dropped from the top-center field once the search results are posted.

This behavior is unlike a store search or Items-For-Sale parts search, where
the color is retained in the search field for possible follow-on searches using
the same color, a highly likely circumstance for many projects.

It would be nice if the color were also retained in the top-center field, given
the likelihood that a user will search their inventory for a different part of
the same color.

This desired trait or attribute or whatever term applies, would alleviate the
need to repeatedly type things like "dark bluish gray" under 2.0, just as it
did under 1.0.

Sincerely, Matthew
