Two issues: Users don't understand the F&R dialog as something to search (I
don't see it) and the dialog is overly complex (I agree, but the tabs won't fix
this issue - and make the interaction more complex). Another reason for tabs is
familiarity with MSO - and I disagree with this reason.
A solution for simple searches is the sidebar - I'd rather put more effort in
this UI.

> this is how the dialog looks now by default
Commented on Gerrit: The toggle buttons are not tabs, and the content is not
properly placed.
