You can search using the Style Editor: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Style_Editor Press Ctrl/Cmd+F to search. It's not presently possible to search across all files at once, but the Style Editor is one of the tools is due for an update to match the current Debugger tool which has a better interface! |

Respectfully, I disagree. The debugger tool's search in files is klunky with the bang prefix required to search all files and the search results shown in a scrollable popunder panel. Search should operate over all files/nodes in the current tab's category by default. And, it is bad UX for a tool that itself is (usually) a docked panel in the main browser window to have temporary panes appear that crowd out or obscure their neighbors. You've already got a file tree on the left, why not make that a twisty tree and categorize the search results under their parent files there - that is, if you feel your developers must have fancy clicky bits.
For those interested, here's some related bugs to look at:
Can't search in multiple sources in the Style Editor https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=889571 (4 years old)
Firebug gaps https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=991806 (3 years old)
The comments in that Firebug gaps ticket hurt me to read. Firebug got shanked by you guys like over a year ago and Developer Tools aren't close to feature parity.
Dear Firefox product owners: developer tools have to be great for the boring use cases -AND- the sexy HTML5 debugging use cases. Please put more resources into the Firebug gaps ticket and knock that one out.
