Steps to reproduce
When using the Outline core plugin with a keyword search filter active, pasting any content into the active note causes the Outline to “unfurl” (expand all headings) and/or ignore the active filter until the search term is re-entered or toggled.
- Open a long note with multiple nested headings.
- Open the Outline view and type a keyword into the search/filter bar to isolate specific headings.
- In the main editor, paste any text (plain text or Markdown).
- Observe the Outline view.

Expected result
The Outline view should maintain its filtered state when search bar is filled with a keyword, regardless of edits made in the main editor.
Actual result
The Outline view immediately expands all headings (unfurls), often ignoring the active search filter, requiring the user to click back into the filter bar to “re-activate” the view.
