Issue with Subdomains on multiple vaults.

I'm having an issue with Subdomains across multiple vaults.

I have 2 vaults set up, a personal one, and one full of work credentials (shared with other team members).

In my personal vault, I have a password for the company's version of our app:
https://subdomain1.appname.com

And in the work vault, I have multiple logins, each with its own subdomain:
https://work_subdomain1.appname.com
https://work_subdomain2.appname.com
https://work_subdomain3.appname.com

My personal vault is the primary, however, when I browse to:
https://work_subdomain1.appname.com
and push command+\

1Password will try to sign in with the details for
https://subdomain1.appname.com

I have Lenient URL matching turned off, and yet this still happens.

What I am expecting to happen is:
I push command+\, enter the password for my primary vault, have it find no match, but now that I have 1Passwords focus, I can push command+2 to swap vaults, and then push command+\ to check the
vault I've switched to for a match.

Using:
1Password for Mac 5.1
Chrome: Version 40.0.2214.111 (64-bit)

    Hi @hackling,

    That's actually working as intended based on how the vaults work in 1Password. They're supposed to isolate your data sets to provide you with separate environments like home and work. That means 1Password does not pay attention to anything else in your other vaults while you're in the current vault.

    In your case, since you're still in the personal vault, 1Password is supposed to fill in your subdomain1 item if it finds nothing else for the main domain and subdomain. It does not pay attention to other data in other vaults. If you want 1Password to look at your data in the work vault, you must switch to the work vault first before pressing CMD+\.

    Based on the feedback we're getting, we are reconsidering how the vaults should work in the future. We'll keep this in mind where 1Password should show all items in all open vaults rather than isolating to current vault.
