--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
There is a 'Find' TOOLBAR <Ctrl>+F, and a 'Find & Replace' DIALOG <Ctrl>+H.

They have similar search function, but implement them in line with intended
use.

The find toolbar is intended to present simple and convenient search, and can
be made available with no affect on the GUI (access with mouse or keyboard (F6)
movements). The find & replace dialog is intended to be heavy weight and more
robust--including performing replacements.

See no functional benefit to be gained by combining them, and a lot of UX churn
in trying to merge them into a toolbar/dialog with some mix of contextual
behavior.

IMHO a clear => WF
