Agreed about the small things. I'll never understand why they decided to put the ctrl+F find dialog at the very bottom of the window. It trips me up almost every time I use Firefox, which isn't often. The vast majority of computer users are not conditioned to look down immediately after invoking find.

Out of interest, where are you conditioned to look? I prefer an in-window find bar to a dialog getting in my way, and I use programs with the find bar at the bottom (Firefox, Libreoffice) more often than ones with it at the top (Chrome, gedit). For me, the position isn't an issue, as I notice the movement wherever it occurs on my screen.
