Query Widget - clear existing query when applying new query

The query widget in experience builder currently has a rest button or cancel option, but can this be made to be automatic if a new query is applied? For non-GIS users this workflow is not as intuitive as you might think. If you create a query to search county, city, zip code and type, but only want the user to be allowed to search one category at a time. The user must cancel or reset any previous query before going to the next search option. If we have to write instructions for user to do this, then it's NOT intuitive. For my agency we are trying to assist our clients in identifying Women, Infant and Children (WIC) clinics and stores near them. Right now, Experience Builder widgets do talk to each other at some level, but at a level that adds confusion. If you do use the query widget, then access the nearby widget. The nearby will only return results from the query and not all. A user would have to clear or reset the query to get the full nearby results. This is good if you have a particular workflow, but not for the average public user. Having an option in any query or search tool that would clear any existing query would be really helpful.

My program wanted me to replicate the ease of use and simplicity of this farm stand application map with Google technology. You're building in the complexity, but how about the simplicity? https://myoregonfarm.round4cloud.com/
