particular feature...

Such is not the case with the regular Mozilla browser; just Firefox
AFAICT (I have just recently used the latest versions of both).

What are you replying to?

If it's:

It is.

Then no, CTRL-F does indeed produce a text search box in Mozilla (1.7.3
in my case). The vi-style / find-as-you-type feature is also there.

But it's not "this same text search feature." Firefox has control-F mapped to a (IMO) better version of the vi-style thing.
