It is the same for Windows. As a result, Find dialog
cannot be used reliably with keyboard only.
Ctrl+F should not be used to "find again" or "start find",
it should only be used to show the dialog.
It would be convenient, so as to exclude the use of mouse,
when the dialog is visible, that Ctrl+F3 be used to
activate the dialog, so that with Esc it could be closed.
F3 should do "find again" when the dialog is not visible also.
After search is done, Esc is pressed to dismiss the dialog,
but since the script window may be open, it closes the
script window instead. This is annoying. To prevent this,
Esc should not be used to close script window. Instead,
there is platform-specific mechanism (Alt+F4 or Cmd+W).
On Java, when Esc is pressed in session and confirmation
appears, pressing Esc again will close the session instead
of dismissing the confirmation.
