Great!

By the way, I also noticed another (related) funny thing: When deleting the
Find from Ctrl+f, still in the Edit menu, there is a line saying ”Find…
Ctrl+F”, (or Search, I didn't switch to English, mine says ”Sök…   Ctrl+F”,
which is Swedish), but Ctrl+f itself doesn't do anything. The menu item
works, though.

Kind regards
