I like having the search bar attached to the Fiji home window, Since I
have a lot of plugins (more than I should, but whenever I see something
interesting I grab it) I set the default to display 20 entries. Of
course that is a matter of taste. I also embed in the main window,
because I tend to have to many windows open on my messy desktop, so I
dont want to keep track of another one...

So far it does not appear to lack anything I need. It is easier to see
the location with the new search bar than with the old interface,
because I do not have to enlarge the window to see the entire file path
entry.  Very nicely done.
