Well the original plan was that if you started typing, we would assume you were trying to search. Travis pointed out that you might be creating new items more often than searching. (Especially given the task management/calendaring scenarios we're focusing on for Beta / 1.0)

How often do people do text search in Outliner / task management and calendar apps? as compared to email clients?
+ The same amount?
+ Twice as much?
+ Half as much?
+ Barely ever?
+ Never?

after reading the other replies I now see that the text area is supposed to be a command area in which search is but one part of it's duty - that to me makes a world of difference as the user goes into the task knowing what context is required.
One downside of putting search in the command line is that it will be less obvious this is where you go for search.
