I have to agree here.  For some reason I always thought it was Ctrl-L...  It'd 
be nice to know of a way to either link a GtkEntry to the search, or provide a 
toggle button to pop it up.  (In fact, I think the open/save dialogues should 
have their main entry linked to the folder and file views, so they both track 
the file being entered.)

Something else I'd like to see, is providing the extra characters from the 
first matching file/folder "pre-selected", ie. entry completion/prediction.

If anyone has example code to do that, I'd be most interested.
