[Bug 846270] [NEW] Cancel search with Esc would be good

 

Public bug reported:

When searching, the proces can only be stopped by opening the menu and
select Stop. Prior to 11.10 there was a button for this, but is was
removed. Hence, stopping the proces is very difficult.

Proposing to use Esc as a shortcut for stopping the search proces. Maybe
this shortcut can be universal for all long during actions in Nautilus
(not only for searching).
