Hi Mimi:

I was reading the searching spec and had a few questions:

I think most people prefer modeless UI. So what do you think about 
getting rid of your search mode and just letting the user click in the 
search box and type their search string -- always keeping the search 
results up to date with whatever they typed?

I noticed that you didn't mention that search should work in the 
Calendar view. Is this an oversight? I could imagine it being useful. If 
it isn't an oversight maybe we should remove the search box in Calendar 
view.

Should we maintain a separate search string for each application area?

John
