Tapping Direct-To in Menu during flight opens the according dialog-box with a sorted list of waypoints nearby.
So far, so good.
Normally, i do not want to go to one of the listed waypoints, but need to search for a waypoint.
To do this, i have to tap "search" and then enter the waypoint or parts of its name.

I would like to see the search-textbox right in the direct-to dialogue with the cursor already positioned in the text box.
IMHO, this can optimize the typical "workflow" for going direct-to somewhere.
It should be easy to change the behaviour of SD. It does not really add a new function

I am not clear: are you using the Direct To option from under the main menu, or simply clicking the new Find tool at the top of the screen? The latter has been specifically designed to be fast to use requiring a minimum of touches.
