I used this for probably the first time (if not ever, at least in a long
while) and was amazed at how crazy cool it was that it behaved that way.

Perhaps we should just have a "Search backwards" checkbox (like every
other find window) and have it checked by default and have its result
save as a pref. That way it's clear what is going on, we have a default
that is useful for IM (but non-standard), and it's easily changeable.
