Description

I'd love to have an option to clear the search list from time to time. Sometimes I do look up information while other people are around and I don't even want them to see what my last searches were or which entries my KeePass file contains. This is especially true since the list of recent searches is app-global and not db-local, i.e. recent searches from my personal database appear even if I'm currently searching in my separate business database.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the app-global recent-search list and its search UI, then determine how a clear action can remove those entries without changing database contents; done means recent searches are no longer visible across databases.
