I'm not entirely certain that this IS a feature
request (and if it is,
it probably doesn't belong on this list) but what does everyone think
about changing the default behavior of the search box? As of now, if I
type something into the box and hit <enter> (or carriage return, or
whatever) the behavior is as if I had pressed the search button. I
suggest changing this to acting is if I had pressed the GO button.
This is a Good Thing because: if someone types in French Revolution they
will probably appreciate going to the article ON the french revolution
immediately without having to click on the top link. Secondly, if
someone wants to find the article on the letter A, they currently have
to /know/ to type in A and click GO. If they click search, the search
engine craps out on them. If the default action were a GO search then
there would be no problem.
Any opinions on the matter?
