I like all the changes, but they should go into separate patches: > (1) Keeps the search field visible by default but leaves it unfocused until triggered by the keyboard Patch 1 > (2) Enables the tab key to select/focus the search field just like any other key Patch 2 > (3) Enables the escape key to collapse Kickoff when pressed from within an empty focused search field that was activated by either a mouse click > or the tab key (a bug in the previous version of Kickoff evident due to an unfocused search area) > (4) Enables the escape key to return the user to the tabbed view in Kickoff when pressed from within a non-empty search field Patch 3 > (5) Changes the label 'Search...' to 'Type to search...' so that the user is made aware that they can, in fact, type to search > (6) Maintains the ability to hover over the user's name to show more information about the system > (7) Lowers the font size of the username to make it fit in better with the search field and user picture/avatar Patch 4 You could use this diff here for patch 1 and split the other changes into dependent diffs.
