Everywhere or just in the "Search Results" screen itself?

A drawback of menuconfig is its stacked interface. Each search and jump
pushes two screens to its stack of screens. I'm often surprised at the
number of screens I generated by searching around a bit. Does searching
from withing search results again push another screen onto the stack?

Anyhow, if hitting enter and "/" bothers you a redesign of the search
functionality would be a better idea. Eg, make it have a input area on
top (to type in the query) and an text area below it (to display
results). Which is probably not worth the, presumably rather big,
effort.
