in advanced search and case search we have a radio button field to search for all cases or my cases.
we also have a clear link to remove the selection.

however, if you clear the selection and run a search, the "my cases" option is reselected as part of the search.

in the advanced search, I don't think we should re-default to an option if cleared. if the user clears the value, it should effectively remove the case criteria from the advanced search altogether (unless other case-related criteria are selected). this is easily done by removing lines 240-249 in CRM/Contact/Form/Search/Advanced.php -- that snippet currently defaults to "my cases" if no value is selected. removing it returns to what I think is the normal behavior.

in the case search, i think the boolean options are valid. you're either searching for your own, or for all cases. so I would remove the clear function altogether. and default to "all cases" (current behavior). there's additional ACL stuff already there if the person is only permissioned to search their own cases.
