Description (last modified by )
I always wondered about the use of the "Search by preset" menu in the search window introduced in july 2017 and in fact never found a use for it, despite using the search window numerous times daily.
It's fine enough to be able to find a specific preset, but when I double-click it, I get:

, which I can't see being usefull at all in this context. There's nothing in the data that would ever match this.
If however when I double-click, instead of preset:"Craft/Blacksmith" the string craft=blacksmith (an actual tag used in OSM: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:craft%3Dblacksmith) was entered into the search string I'm sure I would find it usefull.

This kind of tickets are "useless" too.
