Re: Find text in RDi 9.1.1

I wasn't really following this that closely, until I remembered that 9.1 "broke" the tab order when the Find dialogue was displayed. I thought that was getting fixed... I guess not. So a find/replace will require that I continue to move my hand to the mouse and select the Replace textbox so I can update it - it would otherwise take 11 tabs to get to it.
Pre 9.1, the tab order was as the items appear in the dialogue (Find (text), Next, Previous, All, Replace (text), Replace, Replace all).

Ctrl-F
type search text
Alt-P
type replacement text
Alt-X to toggle regular expressions
Alt-E to replace all

No mouse needed. I use Emacs, so this doesn't seem that weird to me.
It's not tab, tab but it's not 11 tabs either.
