spoiles Ctrl+F because it leaves focus in sidebar when a document name is clicked

Binary package hint: gedit

My gedit sidebar shows all my open documents. When I click a document name the main frame changes to this document as expected. Then I hit Ctrl-F to find something, but that only opens the find functionality of the sidebar! This is quite annoying.

I propose that either:
 1 the sidebar find field is always visible, so Ctrl+F only searches the main frame, or
 2 one can double-click a document name to give the focus to the main frame, or
 3 the focus always changes to the main frame after a document name is clicked

I prefer solution 1. With 3 we would have to define a new way to focus the sidebar when it is full of document names. (e.g. by clicking its icon at the lower left).

My workaround so far: I use now Ctrl+K to search the main frame (didn't know this nice function before I encountered this bug :-)
