I've always disabled the navigation bar. I'd rather incremental search the function. On a side note, why isn't the Nav Bar a toolbar, so it could be moved to the bottom of the window? I'm sure there are deep historical tech reasons, but a lot of those quirks went away in 2010 - is there another reason?Anonymous
