Keep selection after changing the search term

[GniLudio]

Godot has several interfaces with a search field to find/open specific content:
Quick Open, Search for Help, Quick Open Script, etc.

When clearing the search term, it would be nice to keep the previously selected element.

Current Behavior

1. First search for some term
   • 
2. Then remove the (whole or part of the) search term.
   • 
3. It always selects the first match.
   • even if the previously selected element still matches the new search term

Suggestion

The previous selection should be kept if the element still matches the new search term.

Taking the idea further

Instead of only keeping the previously selected element if it still matches:
Just start the search at the previously selected element every time the search term changes.
(a lot of text editors handle searching that way)
