Description

Apparently you have to keep retyping your search term over and over and over if you want to look at more than one result?? This seems badly broken.

Also pressing return after typing a search term in the docs take you to a page somewhere on the site without selecting or clicking on any links.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior in the docs search: inspect how a typed term is handled when opening multiple results and when pressing Return. Done means the search term is retained between results and Return takes the user to the intended search result or page.
