Whenever developers shows lack of interest in use-case based "feature"-implementation, i just point them to this "bug". If the still don't get it, i'll tell them to open the "/usr/share/themes"-folder in Nautilus using just a keyboard. Most of them will just yell obscenities and set PCManFM or Thunar as their default file-manager.
Recursive search is a disaster implemented as a feature you can't opt out of. My personal opinion is that Nautilus should be dropped as default file manager in Ubuntu. I'll never trust that team again. I might add that I'm personally not much affected by the "bug", since I use Midnight Commander.

I personally find this annoying. If I want to search, I'll click the search icon. Often I'm looking at a long directory listing and simply want to jump to a certain point in it, and type-ahead find works great for that. Would Ubuntu consider patching type-ahead find back in?
