Then you did NOT fix this bug, and it should be closed as `wont fix'.
That's your choice, but please do not claim that you fixed the bug
that was reported if you did not.

The original search and query-replace commands, which were in the
menu, should also have keyboard key bindings (as before).  AND the
new commands should be added to the menu.

For the menu, I suggest:

 `Search Files' - as before
 `Search Files using `find' - for the new command

 `Query Replace' - as before
 `Query Replace using `find' - for the new command

Logically, the longstanding key bindings `A' and `Q' should be
restored to the original commands.  But if you refuse that then
they should at least be given other key bindings - `M-a' and
`M-q', for example.

Doing this, you can rightfully close this bug as fixed.
Otherwise, no.
