## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  Login into <https://qa.openproject-stage.com/>
2.  Open one of your projects and then select one of the work packages
3.  Go to Watchers tab
4.  Click on the search field and try searching for a user
5.  Once you have found the user, click to select it -\> the user will appear as a watcher

### What is the buggy behavior?

  - Even after you've selected the user and they appeared as a watcher, their name still stays in the search field so users manually have to clear the input if they want to add another watcher

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  Search field should be cleared after the user is selected
