I tend to use incremental search quite a bit to recall history, and find it quite useful, though it could be better. Bart provided some great comments, which I tried to incorporate into my suggestions.=20 These ideas might help influence what work is done on the incremental search widget. It is on the wiki, so additional ideas/feedback can be added. -FR.
