User blog comment:Dopp/Updates to How We Search/@comment-957747-20120427001220

For those leaving comments about it not sending you to the page when an exact match was searched for : It's not a big deal. Simply hitting "down" and "enter" works just as good. This benefits more people this way than those of us that use it for navigation and in that sense, hitting one extra key is a compromise I would be willing to make. You can see the auto-complete below the search and those that 'see' a page they are wanting can easily pick it from that drop-down.

I agree with this update, even though it requires me to change my habits. It was a pain to search the wiki for a keyword when that keyword existed as a page name. This fixes that issue and actually uses the search bar as a search bar. Previously, you had to navigate to Special:Search to search for a term that exists as a page.

The one things that is missing still is the " does not exist. Would you like to create the  page?" That was left out of Oasis a year ago and has not made it appearance since. Please add this feature back.
