Unfortunately that's not possible in this way with the new search
mechanism we switched to in 2.1 and later. This is unfortunate, but OTOH
the older mechanism couldn't support the OpenSearch standard all other
browser support, and in addition could not be independently maintained
any longer by the small all-volunteer team SeaMonkey has.

Thank you for the clarification.

The best work around would come in a feature request I have wanted for a while. I wish I could split tabs to take less than a full window. Perhaps split a page or some such, with a movable bar to divide them. I often have to compare two things side by side, or reference one thing with another frame. With a dual page or slider I could do this and resolve the search issue. 2 floating windows or two tabs doesn't quite work. Even better would be the floating windows in an opening such as Eudora used to be back in the rev 7 and before days. I realize that would be a major feature request but I'm sure it would be well loved by many.
