I'm trying to use the built-in search UI provided by Android to
provide search in my landscape-mode app. I find the UI to be clumsy
and makes the user lose context by obscuring the entire screen when
the entry field and keyboard appear.

Is there a way that the text entry part of the search screen can
remain a single line (as it does before the keyboard appears) and
allow the app's screen to show through in the space between the entry
field and the keyboard?

If you do a search within the Android browser, you get exactly what I
want. I've even tried to create my own EditText, but for landscape,
the multi-line text entry field and keyboard obscures the entire
screen. Is there something I can do to achieve my desired effect?
