Uri, o I'm not sure what a continuous search would buy - and might take too much cpu away from other tasks.
o A checkbox on the CTRL+F window to search all tabs, all windows, and present a list similar to the drop-down excel offers for "Find All" might work. I don't really care about the user interface so long as it's intuitive, minimalist, and non-intrusive - and let's me locate a desired tab directly from my current one. An even better feature would be the ability to find any given tab, and an option to bring it into the current window instance. It doesn't matter to me as an end User whether this is accomplished by copying the contents of one process to fresh new one, or decoupling a thread from one process and coupling it to another (if that's an accurate way to characterise it) - ... so long at it's robust.
