Description

If the user hasn't explicitly set a page name, a search page's name should automatically change as you change the query, in the format it has when you "open new search page for selected".

I think this would be especially useful in large sessions where you tweak searches frequently, where lots of "files (42)" or misleading page names from an old query can get in the way of finding a specific page later.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so first trace how search pages are named when opened for a selection and how their query changes are handled. Confirm how the application detects an explicitly set page name, then verify that unnamed pages follow the current query while explicitly named pages remain unchanged.
