Come on, that's just lame. If that's the justification, why isn't find-and-replace <ctl>h, as in Word 97? At least that was an office product, not a web browser. This is just my opinion, but the change is just plain wrong. This is one of the reasons why major software modifications fail so miserably - you don't break an existing interface that is ubiquitous. Look at what happened with Office 2007/2010 (before MS put all that money into pushing the new ribbon interface that really sucks, or Vista (vs. XP), etc. Just plain wrong. What makes this worse is that, AFAICT, the new find bar doesn't work either, and it doesn't show up at the bottom of the window, it's a teeny little toolbar smushed into the right end of another one that is virtually invisible unless I search for it.
