Back to Editor Windows: I have a new idea for the status bar

First: move ln, col to the left, replace the label with a label + entry box.  If someone edits the line number and hits return (or just leaves the box?), jump to the line.  Treat negative numbers as from the end.  Do the same with col.  Have AltG jump to the box.

Second: use the remaining space to add a Find [         ] label and box for simple search, with default settings.  This should cover about half of use cases.  Add a button for advanced usages.  The advanced box could combine the existig boxed to cover, find, replace, and multiple files.
