Bug Description

If you do an advanced search that specifies "Assigned to: Nobody", then from the results page change the sort order, the assignee setting will be forgotten.

For example, from <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.searchtext=&orderby=-importance&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=Confirmed&field.importance%3Alist=Undecided&assignee_option=none&field.assignee=&field.owner=&field.component-empty-marker=1&field.status_upstream=&field.status_upstream-empty-marker=1&field.omit_dupes.used=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.has_patch.used=&field.tag=&field.has_no_package.used>, changing the sort order forgets the assignee setting (most visible as an increase in the number of bug reports returned).

Changed in malone:
importance: Undecided → Medium
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed

This happened to me while searching for bugs with a particular tag. It seems that advanced bug searches now have *no* way to sort from the results page. This is a pretty bad regression IMO.

This actually does a whole new search. I'm 99% sure this is a dupe (or the original issue).

the search button now refines rather than resubmitting from scratch, so this bug is fixed.
