Description

If you work on a CSS-file most of the time you want to change a certain class.
In LTS 8.7 having a fileadmin file open (e.g. CSS-FILE) you just pressed "CTRL-F" to search the backend window AND inside the open file. This was fast and easy, because it put you directly inside the css-file at the spot you wanted to work on.
Now you have to activate the already open file-window inside the backend-window first with a mouse click, an then activate the new inside-the-file-search with a "CTRL-F" to then search insde the open file.

Okay, it is just one click more, but for people who are so used to the old easy system you always activate the BE-Window-search and then instead of typing a search command you then type at a random spot inside your open document a class name insted a search phrase at a search window. This leads to a lot of confusion and destroys the rhythm people developed over years.

It will probably also lead to some funny bugs inside css files if experienced integrators are relying on their trained skills/habits.
