Using org.eclipse.ua.tests from HEAD open the cheat sheet User Assistance Tests and go to scenario D2: Filtered Help. In the step "Search selected topic" two hits are expected but there are 5 because the filter by criteria is not taking effect.

Patch

The problem was caused by SearchData saving the scope for any search request. Not only is this unnecessary because the only time a scope changes is when the user opens the working set manager dialog, it also caused this bug because the dialog where the search word is entered does not have a scope parameter.

Sometimes the search will work correctly once, then stop filtering for subsequent searches.
