Summary: More "Find" Options
Initial Comment:
I have two stories in mind. They're not exactly
related, but they have good synergy.
Story one:
A user wants to find the usages of a certain method.
After selecting the method name, the user types ctrl+F
to search. The search tab is automatically brought up
with the selected text in the search field. The user
is then able to repeatedly type <Enter or <F3> to
search for the method without having to type the name
in the search field.
Story two:
A user has just searched for one bit of text, but
realizes that a previous search is needed again. The
user types <down arrow> in the search field, and the
last search the user looked for is shown.
Additionally, the search field might become a combo box
so that the search history can be displayed all at once.
The first option could be annoying if the user actually
wanted to search for the last thing again or make a
slight modification to it; however, with the search
history, it would be easy to get that back if something
were highlighted upon hitting find.
