Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.4-1
Severity: wishlist

Thanks for maintaining Debian's firefox package.

It's great.

I would like to humbly suggest enhancing firefox,
possibly by extension, to allow users to 
search the content of the web page they're viewing
with regular expressions.

Specifically, Edit->Find in this page
would recognize regular expressions.

This has already been submitted upstream (32641),
and it seems to me that it would be a good way to
distinguish iceweasel for debian's sophisticated
computer users.

Similar code already exists in the "Regular
Expression Find 0.2" and "Retro Find 1.4.1"
extensions.  However, the later doesn't understand
the "or" operator, "|", and uses an extra window.
The former doesn't work at all.

Thanks,
Kingsley
