Is there a setting or plugin that allows this? Thank you.
I wanted to add this to my "Walk Search History" plugin. Unfortunately there is no signal emitted (currently at least) to indicate that a search is about to be performed which would provide me an opportunity to snapshot which rows you had selected so that going "back" could restore them.

AFAIK there is no way to do what you ask without changes to the Calibre source code. I suggest you raise it as a feature request in the Calibre bug tracker and see what the response is.
