In my opinion, here are 2 functionalities in File Index that would be good to find in the new browser (which is really, really great by the way):

1. Shortcuts to set the focus on the "search in scope" and "search type or header" fields, like F12 was set for File index search. Furthermore, I just noticed while trying that if the File index pane is closed, pressing F12 does not make it appear and set the focus. That would be a really pleasant behaviour, and for the browser as well of course.



BTW, I have added third field, "Find", that searches across all scopes. The shortcut key was planned to go there...

2. In the file index, when the focus is on the search field,the behaviour is nice: I can navigate within results with up and down arrows, and press Enter to let the code editor go to the symbol definition. That is not the case (yet) in the browser pane, and that would be really nice. I found myself adding new lines instead of going to the symbol, because I was addicted and used to using this functionality from File index.



The only problem of this is that we have now two lists to deal with (scope + items in the scope).

Well, maybe the right solution is to add "<current file>" to the scope, then stay there for F12?

Any further ideas are welcome.
