== Search == | |||
The search panel gets an ever-present case-sensitivity checkbox, with an accesskey so it can be toggled quickly and without leaving the keyboard. | |||
A help pane, accessed by clicking an icon in the search field, describes the available filters. Users no longer have to check a manual (which never existed) or the source code to uncover them. | |||
