Interesting and enlightening. Thanks, Flash!

I found a circuitous way to set it (transiently?) to search by filename
or file contents, but neither shows up in the status line, as it does in
your screenshot in the rectangle you drew.

Incidentally, would you say the way Spotlight is done is good design or
bad? I'd say: quite bad. (What the hell is that little grayed out x in a
circle doing there, for instance?)

Is there someway to get Finder to put all its folders at the top, like
Explorer does? What I see, vertically, is an uninterpretable melange of
folders, on different levels, and files. Finder makes Explorer look good,
which you'd think would be a hard thing to do.
