I had never used KFind before... but I totally agree. it looks like the Win95
Find File dialog. ick
perhaps we can learn from another UI designer on how a good search app
looks/feels.

or has anyone else seen those Microsoft preview videos for longhorn with the
WinFS Searching? It uses incremental searching for file-browsing and is
uber-slick.
It would be really neat if Reiser4's metadata was kept in a way that you could
do fast queries like how winfs does it w/ a (IIRC) a sql server.
