The main reason this happens for quick entry is when the selected filter
is, say, Task, but we created a new Event.  In that case, the item's
added to the dashboard, not the currently selected collection.  The
current code will now switch us to the dashboard, but it doesn't change
the filter, so the item still isn't visible in the table view.

I'm saying changing collections is a change of behavior for quick entry
which I don't think is desired.  Yes, it's similar to what currently
happens when the New Item button is pressed in the trash or a read-only
collection, but the quick entry use case is different from New Item.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
