== Request for integrated search bar ==
Firefox could have one search bar, with a search engine plugin searching the current page. Another search engine plugin could search using regular expressions (see Request for regex find). History, bookmarks, extensions/themes, and other Firefox items can be searched through this one bar. The shortcuts would activate their respective engines (and could be customized), and the hotkey for the current search bar would activate the default engine. Last, default and custom hotkeys for activating each engine; Control+Alt+Y for Yahoo, Control+Alt+G for Google, Control+Alt+D for digg.
== Request for regex find ==
Firefox should have an option in the Find bar to search regex instead of keyword. Regex find can have a separate shortcut key, e.g. Control+Shift+F.
== Request for always highlight all matches ==
Firefox should have an option to always highlight all matches in current page.

Request for a "Show only matching lines" find option

Firefox should have a "Show only matching lines" option in the find toobar, next to the "Highlight" tick mark. So-called "folding editors" (see Wikipedia for a detailed explanation) and the "xedit" editor of the VM/ESA operating system and also the demo at http://johnvey.com/features/deliciousdirector/demo.html have this feature.

If the "Show only matching lines" tick mark is chosen, Firefox should display only those lines which contain the search string.
