Now that it is confirmed please set an importance based on reality. And
please somebody find the package and tell someone to fix it, it's
completely annoying.

Title:
  cannot search text beginning with Alt(-gr) special character

Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  background:
  gedit 3.4.1-0ubuntu1
  ubuntu 12.04

  1. Open text file with Gedit
  2. Hit CTRL-F to search
  3. try to give i.e. "@deco" with finnish keyboard where the character '@' comes from key combination AltGr + 2
  expected: can enter text starting with special characters to search with into the search box
  result: search box closes when pressing Alt -> and typing the text that was intended for the search box ends up in the document itself.
  workaround: copy-paste the search string into search box
