Comment (by c3mdigital):

 Like Nacin said above it's a form.  If you use the category drop down and
 choose cat-1 and then choose May 2012 in the date drop down then enter a
 search term you're going to send a post request for
 `cat=cat-1&m=201305&s=search+term`.

 Now lets say you put the drop downs back to the default of 0 or all then
 search again.  Using your logic the date and category parameters should
 stay the same as in the previous url query arg when the user intentionally
 removed them.

 If you need to keep a parameter in search then add a filter to
 restrict_manage_posts with your own drop down select.
