[SailfishDevel] Dialog/ListView/Menu/Search

[Thomas Tanghus]

I must be possible to do, but maybe my head is just wired wrong - well, I do 
have that one paper already, so... :D

How to have a SilicaListView with a SearchField inside a Dialog with a 
DialogHeader and a menu, where the SearchField is below the DialogHeader, 
the list starts below both?

Every even semi-logical way to do this ends up, for me at least, with an 
unholy mess.

What for me would seem logical is be a variation of:

Dialog {
    SilicaListView {
        PullDownMenu { /* MenuItems */ }
        header: DialogHeader {
            id: dialogHeader
        }
        SearchField {
            parent: dialogHeader.extraContent
        }
    }
}

or:

Dialog {
    SilicaListView {
        PullDownMenu { /* MenuItems */ }
        header: Column {
             DialogHeader {}
             SearchField {}
        }
    }
}

Neither works, but as coderus wrote to me in a PR 4-5 years ago, I do weird 
stuff ;)

I could write all the variations I've tried, but that would just be a parade 
of more weird stuff with variations over missing or misplaced header, menu, 
search field or list.
