[Feature Request/ Idea] Streamlined filtering: Clear filter text upon opening folders; keyboard "enter" to open first list item, keyboard "backspace" to navigate up, scroll to hide keyboard.

Feature	Rationale	Implementations considered
Clear filter text upon opening folders	To be able to see the folder contents. (Usually not filtering the same thing twice.)	Only necessary for folders rather than files. Navigating to parent folder also clears the filter text.
Keyboard "enter" to open first list item	Like picking the first result in app search or web browser. Can keep fingers on the keyboard.	Navigates into folders, opens files (like tapping on a file > Open).
Keyboard "backspace" to navigate up	Can keep fingers on the keyboard.	Either 1 - press once to delete all characters, once again to navigate to parent; or 2 - backspace navigates to parent if filter box is empty and no chars were deleted within last consecutive presses (X ms apart).
Scroll to hide keyboard	Saves a step.	Scrolling the folders and files list hides the keyboard (also consider mouse scroll).

Just some features for efficient navigation, similar to file managers like PCManFM-Qt. IMO the most needed is the clearing of filter text; the other features are extra.
