I'm going to try to respond by saying that we know the search interface
needs work and is difficult for users who are accustomed to traditional
search & replace dialogs. There are a number of changes that can be
made, including:
* Not defaulting to incremental search when doing a replace operation
* Adding a search within selection option
* Possibly setting things up so that a simplified version of the search
tool comes up in a separate dialog by default
* Possibly turning off incremental search when not in emacs mode,
although I still hope to improve incremental search so that it works
smoothly. I do think incremental searching is a real improvement once
you get used to it -- I miss it in every application that doesn't have it.
Thanks for the feedback,
John
