For long, it's been known, that if you wanted a bigger search field, you could
add the following to the userChrome.css
#search-container {
  -moz-box-flex: 400 !important;
}

and the search field would be 400px wide (instead of the default 200 or so...)

But since i've updated to 1.0 PR - the search field is now 200px - but the
containing block is 400px wide - thus is the search field shifted to the left -
with 200px of empty space next to it... 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. set #search-container { -moz-box-flex: 400 !important; } in userChrome.css


Actual Results:  
the search field remains the default size - but the containing block is now 400
px wide



Expected Results:  
The search field to adjust to the containing block - and thus be 400 px wide
