Do I understand this right:
You want that the normal Find dialog should put its result into the
search result view, instead of jumping to the result?

And you want that Find and Find-in-Files should be merged, so that you
can no longer use Find-in-Files for global navigation and Find for
local navigation?

I personally would not like that. But if someone really wants this
feature, then provide a patch that adds an option to the env opts dlg,
so users can switch between those both behaviors.
