Browser do not work this way.
This version is using the browser way instead of the typical software
UI. This creates a major problem for anyone who has ever worked with any
type of software, and in long documents, or spreadsheets where you need
to add or edit input this makes it take twice as long as now you need to
click with a mouse.
I know the world loves mice, but for anyone who knows how to use a
keyboard this is a huge time suck.
I tested this in both the spreadsheet in the writer. I can't believe
this is acceptable in a office product. I would think this would also be
a problem for accessibility as well. I'm not sure what version this
started in, as I was using a old one and just deleted and installed this
one. I don't remember what one it was.
Even opening the old find and replace box produces this.
This can be changed back to default by editing the Keyboard in
Customize, however I don't think this is how it should be, or this needs
to be something that is an easy choice via the Options. I also found
that ctrl-alt-f produces the original default effect. It's a bit much
imho to think that people who have been using software for years with a
ctrl-f expectation will know how to fix it. They are just going to think
something is broken. Which is what I did initially as well, until I
started reading some items here.
Ok, can you tell this freaked me out? I think that this has the
potential for a huge issue for anyone who has been using OOo or
LibraOffice for a few years.

I had the same problem with libreoffice-writer-3.4.4.2-6.fc16.x86_64.
In Bug 35706 they say that it was fixed but not for me.
Here other people with the same problem:

Curious solution:

-- delete $HOME/.libreoffice and CTRL-F is working again.
