I don't know about this "entire document" idea, if they're freely typing anywhere, A) As Justin mentioned shortcuts such as ctrl T for a new tab might be broken, and B) They're going to have no idea what they've already typed nor have any idea how many times they've hit backspace when trying a new search etc. There has to be some form of data representation for the input.
