Note that the screen shot does not show the current version. KBibTeX 0.6 uses two combo boxes, mainly because a menu is unusable with the many biblatex fields (see attached screenshot). Also note that we have more widgets, so we cannot put everything into one row. Moving it to the top would be trivial, but still we need to show/hide the search options. > If you have search-as-you-type, I'm wondering who needs search with > regular > expressions.
