So, pretty much everyone agrees that this could be made easier by default, right? I suppose the same goes for the new ways of finding stuff in a webpage (Ctrl+F or /, instead of the merger as present in Firefox 1.0).

What to do?

Cool. Where did Flock get that cool searchbox idea? Fx seems to still open the new tab w/ the setting flipped, which I am okay with.

Just wanted to drop in and say hi (just emailed you).

I second the use of ctrl-t with ctrl-k. It gives flexibility – sometimes I do want to open the search result in the current tab, although most times not.

Opening a new tab was (is?) the experience in Flock. When the experience did not work was when you only have a new / blank tab open.

the Tab Mix Plus extension will allow you to chose behavior of search bar, location bar, bookmarks, history.. if they open in new tab, new window, current tab, etc.
