Yeah, the Bookmark Manager search box is a little hard to notice. In the development version, they have added a "Search" label next to the box to make it clearer.
Ctrl+B is Always Show the Bookmarks Bar, which will make the bookmarks bar open just below the address bar. It should be more than 1 pixel high because even if you have no toolbar bookmarks, it should have an entry on the very right side that says "Other bookmarks", which is a shortcut menu of all your bookmarks instead of using the Bookmark Manager.
