The Edit->Find menu entry pops up a search dialog box, as seen in

for me it is almost completely broken. (See below for a detailed
description.)
I agree with the sentiment. It seems to work much better on windows
because it has a real dialog there. Is there a generic way we can disable
stuff like this on X where it doesn't quite work, without
1. Disabling the feature on platforms (Windows? Gtk?) where it works just fine
just because plain X is lagging.
2. Loosing the code, so that when somebody willing and able comes along
to fix it he can.
