Summary0004817: Main menu needs "Search" or "Find" button or link
Description

The first thing I'm likely to want to do when I reach a Mantis installation is figure out whether the bug I want to report has already been reported, so I want to "search" for or "find" bugs. But there is no link or button labeled "Search" or "Find" so I'm confused right off the bat. It takes a moment to realize that I'm supposed to click "View Issues". Would be helpful if somehow the word "Search" or "Find" could be worked into the link.

I agree. I was confused at first, too. It seems to me that it would be more useful to have a "Search" on the top-right of the nav instead of a "Jump". If you "Search" for a issue ID, you could still be taken straight to that issue.
