the quick search box does not resize and I can't see the cursor

The quick search box does not resize when I typed a long search keyword which exceeds the width. 

is it possible to make the search box automatically resized according to the length of the search phrase. or at least let the user see the cursor at the end of the search phrase?

is it possible to add non-matched search phrase into the search history?

thanks

Reproducible on Windows and Linux, works fine on Mac.

Thank you for reporting.
