No, BookBrowser is not a file browser and real paths are different from the virtual "functional" groupings used in Sigil. The BookBrowser's underlying selection model is to allow functions to work on one virtual group at a time making it easier to select subsets of xhml, or css files (which it can do even if those files are in different real folders). This is important for xhtml files split into different folders (ie. separate book or separate chapter folders). Without it drag and drop to set spine order would not work.
You can create a delete files by wildcard or regex plugin to do what you want. It would be quite easy.

Could we have an option to format css? And if yes, can we format it so that { and } are on lines of their own?
|
You can already format CSS with Sigil, just not like you may want. Again, reformatting css is very doable inside a plugin. Or since you have done so in the past modify our internal css parser to do what you want. My guess is it would take very minimal changes to do that given it already provides formatting strings that use used when serializing a parsed css file. Maybe even tweaking a single string value would do what you want.

When doing find / find replace would it be possible to leave the last entry in the find window instead of clearing it? I ask because sometimes I use complicated regexes and if I get it wrong I don't want to have to type it again. (I know it's normally in the drop down list, but I'm using Becky's tip to block popups so the drop-down list doesn't appear for me)

Why? This is self-inflicted behaviour. Use the provided drop down history list or use Saved Searches to store complex searches. My searches are remembered even after they are used and are not cleared even by closing Find and Replace. They are there when I reopen it.
Sorry, but we are looking for generally useful features that can not easily be handled by plugins and not highly subjective requests to change formatting based in a single user's preferences. Give plugins a try. You can use them in many many ways to do things just the way you want. We have a large selection of plugins in our Plugin Index that you can use as examples. Or for your css change, modify your own copy of Sigil.
