That makes one of you so far.
I think it's a major feature, as well. I find it so useful that if it went away, I'd probably switch to the vanilla mozilla suite or the Firebird browser.
Out of curiosity, what does type ahead find harm? I've thought about it but can't come up with anything. Is there a single usage of the browser that is impaired by this feature? Unless there is, I would find an option in the preference panes irritating. Why clutter up the preference panes with useless crap which will only confuse the user? It seems like poor UI design to make users wade through extra options when it's not necessary. I can understand having options for features that may somehow interfere with some users, but for this it is harder to see :-)
IMO, the Camino developers are creating a better browser by not including every oddball option that the browser suite offers in the pref panes.
On a related note, I'd like to cast a vote for fixing about:config or providing an analogous facility. That seems like a nice middle ground between cluttering the preference panes and making folks who want to change more obscure settings edit user.js.
Also, the find dialog that started this thread seems to be working in 2003111013 (nightly) as well as the 0.7 release on 10.3.
Regards,
Geoff
