ADDITIONAL INFORMATION this bug is related to this one: bug 410400 I feel like what's needed here is a setting to choose whether to make the find&replace bar global, or document-specific. When it's document-specific then its open/closed state should be remembered on a per-document basis, as is requested here. When it's global, then not only should it stay open or closed across all documents, but its search history and current search term should be global as well, rather than per-document.

If you want to close it, pressing Esc key or Clicking on the panel button at the bottom will do that. The document search (which you can open with Ctrl + F) closes as soon as you switch tabs / views. |
