Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I don't think I'm going to move back to Protonmail even after this implementation. This essentially means that every time I open my browser tab for email (which is how I prefer to use email), I have to build an index before I can search for something. That is too big a tax on usability for encrypted emails. The ironic thing is IMHO, email is already a leaking abstraction that cannot be encrypted. In this case, unless I demand all the humans I send my secure email to to also use Protonmail, my ultra secure email simply lands as plain text in their Gmail account. So, I might as well use Fastmail, and have the convenience of full text search when I need it.
My goal is to pay for my use, and prevent my email provider from profiling all my emails and selling it to advertisers. If I need a secure way of communication, email would probably be the last method that will come to my mind.
