Sorry, LSR, I still can't get your comments to work, I keep getting "Sorry, you must be logged in to post a comment." So:
Aren't you talking about using "." (or "/") to search for text in page? - which means to search for "fanboy" on a page, you'd type ".fanboy". At least for me, ctrl F still brings up the search box, as it does for most Windows apps.
The best thing about this search is that to move to the next hit, you just press F3, shift F3 to go back - ie the normal Windows shortcuts. You can also copy and paste results in order to search, so you can copy the text "fanboy", press ".", then ctrl v.
List of relevant Keyboard Shortcuts. And pure keyboard navigation.
The thing I hate most about Firefox's search is that it makes noise like someone's biting off your testicles.
