It really is. I suspect it's one of those designs where if you think
and work like the guy who designed it it might be nice. But
apparently a lot of us don't, so it isn't. It's just clumsy. I'd
really like some checkboxes that let me tell it to search source
files, my header files, and/or system headers.

Weird... the window makes perfect sense to me (command-shift-f I am talking about) and I used CW a lot.

Since Xcode's key bindings are customizable you should probably use the name of the command when referencing it.

It also provides all of the options you are asking for ...

How do you tell it to only search header files? Xcode's Find window is an interface disaster IMO. It's the least intuitive Find window I've ever used and it has more than one issue that limits how useful it is to me.


including
the ability to save search criteria, give it a name and have it
available from the popup menu in the search window.

I didn't ask for that. ;-) But a history popup of previous search text that was persistent across launches would be nice. The current one starts clean each time you launch Xcode.


And I want search results to appear in their own window. I really miss being able to have multiple search results windows available. Sometimes it would even be nice to run multiple searches concurrently.
