Perhaps we could modify the search box slightly to get rid of the need for
the clear search results button?

The following could be done:

1.  Search box gets a "Clear Results" button.
2.  On enter, Search box doesn't exit.
3.  Clear Results button would be disabled until their are results to clear.

This would also set us up for a possible future search enhancement to allow
for previous/next buttons in the search box to shuffle through the search
results interactively(instead of a simply highlight).

Thoughts?
