THIS IS REALLY ANNOYING, the immediatly starting search function stalls the program in long files (e.g. I want to search for "def", it stalls the program with searching all d's and so on (gedit gets greyed out) for a minute)
You can add an option to preferences, if user wants immediate search for every letter you enter.
Please fix this asap.
