Yes the find & replace dialog doesnt work (bug 91797) but the toolbar also
doesnt work in fullscreen with either of these steps.

1) Open Writer
2) View > Fullscreen
3) Press Ctrl+F top the toolbar and press Escape to close it
4) Press Escape to close fullscreen mode or press the fullscreen button
5) View > Fullscreen
6) Pressing Ctrl+F wont open the toolbar

OR

1) Open Writer
2) Press Ctrl+F to open the toolbar
3) View > Fullscreen
4) Toolbar disappears and pressing ctrl+F wont make it reappear

In my view, only dialogs should be accessible in full screen mode, as the mode
intentionally disables toolbars, floating (non-modal) dialogs and the sidebar.
To solve the issue of users pressing ctrl+f in fullscreen mode and it not
working correctly, it should be coded into the Find toolbar command
(vnd.sun.star.findbar:FocusToFindbar) to open the find & replace dialog if full
screen mode is active.

I would believe this mode is intended to provide the maximum available space
for users wanting to focus on their content and not have it taken up by various
UI elements that are available in regular mode.
