did you activate it by choosing it from the menu, or did it appear

Both; no apparent difference.
Very strange!
I tried it several times over, and found out that after enabling the
search box from the "Search"-menu, clicking in the text field actually
removed the cursor and disabled any further input!
Does it make any difference for you to start it in 32-bit-mode?
Like so:
% JAVA_VERSION="1.8" "/usr/local/bin/java" -d32 -verbose -jar
"Downloads/JabRef-3.6.jar"
Meanwhile, I played a bit with the options of the JVM, and setting it to
verbose, there actually seems to be some kind of reaction when typing to
the field:
[Loaded javax.swing.Autoscroller from /usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded sun.awt.X11.XKeyEvent from /usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded sun.awt.X11.XKeysym from /usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded sun.awt.X11.XKeysym$Keysym2JavaKeycode from
/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/rt.jar]
Even though no apparent reaction occurs.
