If I make a quick search in a directory and the focus goes on good file, I can press enter to open it directly but F2 won't work (if I want to rename it). I have to press down arrow then go back with the up arrow to hide the search field and enable F2 for renaming. It's a little detail but these are the a mark of well finished work. :)
