I'm trying to get this working on 4.0.8 (it was working for us on
3.6.7).  What I'm seeing is that the search works fine when defined, but
it's not 'sticking' to be the default search as it was before.

Here's the step-by-step - I'm hoping somebody can point out my error:

1) log in as root
2) click the queue in the 'Quick search' box
3) click 'Edit Search'
4) in 'Display Columns', choose the field, and move it right with the
arrow button.  Adjust position as required.
4a) tuned it in 'Advanced' for layout (definition included below)
5) click 'Update Format and Search' (looks perfect)
6) verify the custom field is still there by clicking among [Edit,
Advanced, Show Results] - looks great
7) return to 'Home'
8) click queue again.  <<=== Custom Field Gone ===>>

I'm wondering if there is a step 6a)?   I'm not seeing any error log
messages about this.

Thanks,
-Bill
