Data.census.gov offers functionality that allows you to edit a table ID or other text in the single search bar while maintaining your geography selections.

After editing text in the single search bar, press enter or click the magnifying glass icon to run the search. This will keep geographies you have previously selected via the filter panel in the new search.
