Comment (by chrisbliss18):

 Does anyone else see an issue with the way that the Search space is styled
 currently?

 [[Image(http://chrisjean.com/images/admin-bar-wide-search.png)]]

 To me, there are two issues: Since the right border is missing, the Search
 blends in with the custom menu to the right of it. Since the size of the
 Search entry is independent of the size of the text in the box (the text
 can be much smaller or could be cut off if too long), it makes an odd gap
 between it and the custom menu entry to its right.

 The right-border is easily taken care of by adding a ":last-child" to the
 selector that removes the border. I successfully tested this in Firefox
 7.0, Chromium 14, Opera 11.51, and IE 9. I included a patch for this
 modification.

 The size issue is not as easily taken care of. I know of no way to get an
 text input to shrink to its contents without the use of JS, which seems
 avoided in preference to pure CSS solutions.
