Do you mean it would be painful under some new regime with multiple
html files?  When there's a single html file, like with the current
docs, it's trivial.  You hit "Edit.. Find in This Page" in your
browser.

It's a personal preference.  I tend to like CLI's over GUI's since 10
fingers have much more bandwidth for a touch typist than a mixture of
mousing around and keystrokes that you tend to use for GUI's.

Also, the browsers I have tried do not have the powerful regular expression
searching you can do with "less".  As they say, "less is more". :-)
