Details

Steps to reproduce:

highlighted a word in the email editor window, selected from menu "find and replace".

Actual results:

The find box is either emptly or filled with some word for which one has searched before

Expected results:

the search field should have been filled with the text highlighted in the email editor. This is so standard in so many programs that I was really quite astonished that this was not happening in TB.
This might be connected to the following bug 234972, but of which I'm not quite sure if it is TB specific
