But I could improve it to actually compare the find string with what was used in last session.
Do you see a situation when the Find clipboard's content is reused from another program?
I do that all the time (seriously!). I rather often have a string in Mail, Terminal, OmniWeb, or TextMate and want to search for that string in one or more of the other programs. Having command-e/command-g work across applications is really something I can't live without today! But I've seen Classic users actually claim that TM was buggy because of it :)
I would prefer Regular expressions to stick (since I use them almost always, in fact); and in the rare case when the search string has come from another program, to switch it off manually.
I won't make it sticky, but I'll add to the to-do that it should only clear when the string has changed from the last session. Expect it in 1.1b1 (which I do think I can promise will be before the new year) or 1.1b2.
