I have checked in a new feature that adds a "Go" button next to the "Search" button (default skin). By using this button, you can display a page directly instead of first searching for it and then following the link, e.g. you type "CIA", click "Go", and you are put directly on the CIA page. Quite handy if you have to jump between articles a lot.
Personally, I find the function to be non-obvious, and it clutters an already cramped corner of the screen.
It may not be entirely obvious, but it's one of those things that are easy to explore, like the "I'm feeling lucky" button in Google. It might be extended to run a normal search when there is no direct hit, and to do some smarter case variations (e.g. if "Gone with the wind" doesn't exist, try "Gone With the Wind", then "Gone With The Wind").
The "Go" is wrapped into the next line in some browsers, which is ugly. Is there any reason why that table cell has a fixed pixel width?
