A common shortcut to delete everything in a field/line is Cmd+Del (which is supported in regular note mode). I often try to do this in the "Search notes" bar to delete my search query and type a new one in, however that isn't supported and instead the last note selected gets deleted. This is a silent data loss issue because the user does not even realize they are deleting a note since the search bar is focused. I often will try pressing it several time only to later realize that I deleted several notes accidentally. This use of Cmd+Del does not match any other Mac app (including Finder which even though it uses Cmd+Del to delete files, does not do this when Search is focused) and can cause users to lose data unknowingly.
