Description
Description:
When Completing a global search, the results includes an indicator as to what room the result is in. This indicator always shows the room in which the search was initiated, even if the result is actually located in another room. Jumping to the result does go to the correct room.
Steps to reproduce:
- Enable Global Search (under Settings > Search)
- Go back to the UI, and select a room
- Search for a string that is located in a room other than the current room.
Expected behavior:
Room name shown in the search results corresponds to the room where the results are found
Actual behavior:
Room name shown is the current selected room.

Research direction
Start by reproducing Global Search from one room, searching for a string found in another room, and inspect how the result's room indicator is rendered. Done means the indicator names the room containing each result while selecting the result still navigates to the correct room.
