Summary	0004817: 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.
