      Current Behavior:
      Smart Query has, on more than one occasion, ruined a perfectly good search with its smartness.

      There have been zero occasions where I have found it useful.

      For example, if I search for "duplicate x", I want to find bugs in my software where something is getting duplicated. IE, "duplicate records" or "duplicate users" or "duplicate locations".

      I am not looking for JIRA issues that are duplicate. And by automagically changing my filter to issue type of duplicate is just wrong.

      Desired Behavior:
      Add a feature to turn this silliness off.

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. In the Search Box in the upper right hand corner, type in "Duplicate something".
      2. Search.
      3. Note that a filter has been set for Duplicate Issues.
      Thanks
