I appreciate the issue, ambiguity between accelerators in panels such as the editor S&R panel and the menu bar/dropdown accelerators. Interestingly, it's an issue that the much maligned ribbon interface overcomes, via its single finger multiple keystroke sequences to action ribbon widgets

The ambiguity could be resolved if the S&R panel used something other than than "Find" as a label - "Search" would also be ambiguous, so how about "Locate".
