I hope we don't have to have this fight again. There must have been a couple of
hundred messages on this list arguing (in some cases whinging) over it.
Everybody said what they needed to say a year(?) ago.
Bare Bones (I do NOT speak for them) makes changes to BBEdit for reasons they
believe good and sufficient. BBEdit follows a considered plan of what Bare
Bones thinks the application should be. A disaster might have brought the modal
Find dialog back; there has been no disaster. The dialog is not hidden; the
code for it no longer exists. It is not coming back. The matter is not subject
to a vote.
If a tool you use has a feature you need, and another does not, you are on the
right track: Don't switch to the tool that won't do what you need. Have no
regrets.
