As shown in this screenshot, the search icon USC uses is different from
the one Nautilus uses, but it's the same as the one Firefox uses.

I don't understand what's going on here. Maybe Firefox and USC are using
a non-symbolic icon, while Nautilus is using a symbolic variant? I think
a search icon inside a text field should always be a symbolic one.

As for why it's on the left, the Clear button is on the right. In
Firefox and Nautilus, the search icon is something you click to perform
the search. In USC, we use a live search instead, so putting it on the
right would be misleading.
