I don't think this is currently possible, although you can populate the search bar with a default value, similar to how the Unix app works.
Basically if you edit $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/ /default/data/ui/views/ .xml, you should find an XML module named "SearchBar", and you can add a new param named "q" with the parameter being whatever you want in the search bar for that view.
true
true
index=os
False
See $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/unix/default/data/ui/views/about_dashboard.xml as an example.
