Can you please point me to the debate where having the search box in
the interface was "clutter"?  I, and others here, are trying to make a
simple and concise argument for why the search box should always be
visible.

Giving some respect to these opinions would serve *you* (and
SqueezeCenter, although I know you're not a slim employee) well at this
point.  Why do you insist on such quick, road-block responses as this
instead of realizing there are a lot of valid points being made?  Why
wouldn't it be easier to maintain code that doesn't include a bunch of
hide/show logic around a search field?  That's just plain common sense
and shouldn't be up for debate, IMHO...
