Description libing wang CLA 2013-11-28 10:18:37 EST
I found that when I repeatedly search some keywords inside editor, I always expected the input box can remember what I've searched recently.
We can use the same widget in the search page. The list of recent search can be shared as well. Maybe...

I'm OK with the Find field remembering past searches, but I would not want the list shared between the Find field and the Search page. I tend to use the Search page and the Find field for very different types of queries and it would not be meaningful (for me) to see them combined.

OK, lets just separate them.
