Assuming this is still open for discussion....

I'll retract that statement. I don't think moving it into a
dialog would improve Insight. I do think that there is room
for both a search box on the toolbar and a pop search dialog
with extended features.
I think removing the search box from toolbar will only add
extra hoops for users to jump through to perform a simple
search. (If you had the choise, which would you use for a
simple string search.)
Anyway I would still like to check this patch in, once I've
moved the find box, I can submit the patch to label the
comboboxes.
Ian.
