No, it's a setting. As an earlier poster said, BBEdit provides an "expert preference" setting. Quoting Roland Kuffner's message from yesterday (Oct 5):

Like many Mac OS X applications, BBEdit supports the "Find Scrap", a feature of the OS that enables sharing of the "search for" string between applications. Some applications put inappropriate content (such as Web search strings) on the Find Scrap, which can cause the "search for" string in BBEdit's Find dialog to be replaced when you didn't expect it.

To tell BBEdit not to import the Find Scrap into its Find window, nor to export the "search for" string to the Find Scrap:

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit FindDialog_UsesFindScrap -bool NO

As Rich Siegel, dev of BBEdit says, Enjoy.
