ContextMenu: Return back to query result from context menu after context menu result action.

[Or1g3n]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Please see discussion on my plugin repo for details, Or1g3n/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Todos#9.

My plugin is more focused on item management, for this reason I mostly avoid exiting the FlowLauncher UI after result actions are executed. I am working on adding ContextMenu based actions, however, in current state, it appears the behavior to return back to query search only works when the ContextMenu is hidden. Per @jjw24, the API nor default behavior does not currently support return to query search AFTER ContextMenu based result action.

Describe the solution you'd like

Please enable the return to query search after ContextMenu result action even if window is not hidden. Additionally, this could be added as an API call action to support plugin development.

See @jjw24 comments in the link above for clarification.

@Jack251970 This looks like exactly what I was looking for! However, I do not see this function in the API even though I am on the latest version (4.4.0) per NuGet manager in visual studio. Although this was merged is this not released yet?

@Or1g3n Hello, FYI, if you use this api function to make sure ChangeQuery and ReQuery work when results are from context menu or history, you can remove this function. See more in #3240.
