Search button?

The issue I’m speaking of is when you are on the Accounts tab and just start 
typing. A small entry field will pop up, usually in the lower right corner 
(location varies) and it finds (as you type) whatever text you just typed in 
that tab. It isn’t a feature of GnuCash to search for accounts. It is a feature 
of GTK as a general content search.

That is where my delete and/or backspace key do not work for me. (using Apple 
standard keyboard or a full keyboard) Yes, this field comes up blank initially, 
but if you misspelled something, you can’t use delete/backspace to fix it. You 
have to highlight the entire text first.

Regards,
Adrien
