iTunes 11 forgets search

Hi,

Just wanted to know if anyone knows of a way for iTunes 11 to remember my search in the library. I is really bugging me that when I:

1) search in my library
2) selects to play a song/album
3) switches to sync my iPhone / look in the iTunes Store
4) switches back to "music" in my library

then I have to redo the search to e.g. restart the album, select a specific song from those search terms etc... iTunes 10.x always remembered the search - a great way to e.g. just create a very temporary playlist etc.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Regards,
Jakobben
