It is a sad fact, when windows notepad/word-pad Find/Replace works better and makes more sense than RDi 9.1.1 after some many updates...
Even Eclipse does not WORK that way, require 11-tabs. One-tab, and you are at the replace field...
Just another small disappointment, that adds up...

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).

I think you are right, but as I wrote earlier, I never use the dialogue for simple search-only tasks, so my 'Find Dialogue' was always full of the 20+ lines I'd selected for 'Find in selection'.
How do you have Ctrl+Shift+F in your preference, I have this:
Command: Format Binding: Ctrl+Shift+F When: PDE Editor, Editing Text, Editing Java source, etc...
Windows > Preferences
Type 'key' into the search box (no quotes) LPEX Editor > User Key Actions Key c-s-f Action findSelection Click Set Click Apply Click OK
Now, highlight a name, press Ctrl-Shift-F and you'll be taken to the next occurrence.
I probably complain the most about macros, so it's only fair that I publicly acknowledge the very nice interface we have here to expand the LPEX editor's capabilities. The default Java editor doesn't have this preference.
