Safari's 'find on page' defaults to Google search terms

This "hint" (more like serendipitous observation) assumes that you activate Safari's Google search bar (View -> Google Search).

  1. Do any search via Safari's Google search bar
  2. Select Edit -> Find (or hit Command-F)
You'll notice that the find dialog remembers your last Google search condition. Otherwise, the find dialog remembers your last Edit -> Find input. I doubt any of this is useful, but I thought I'd share.

[robg adds: This is a nice UI touch that saves a bit of time here and there, just like the drop-down menu of previous Google searches under the magnifying glass...]
