I often use Cmd-tab to switch between apps on the mac, and I noticed that this search pane shows up in the tab switcher, which can get in the way a bit.
* In vscode, cmd-tab to chrome
* cmd-E to search for something
* cmd-E to close the search (goes back to chrome)
* cmd-tab to go back to vscode (but this goes to browserparrot)
Alfred, a similar search app doesn't do this, and I quite like that behaviour. I found out how to change this, as a user, here, but it would be nice if it was done by default: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/92004/is-there-a-w...
