Sorry, I should have gone on more... This function only doesn't work for
transactions. It works just fine when you search for business objects.
E.g., from Business -> Customer -> Find Customer after your first search
it will activate the "Refine Current Search". The bug (and yes, this
is a bug) is that from the transaction search results a "Find" doesn't
apply the last search results... So it doesn't activate the functionality.
