Find text box is too small and unnoticeable #3400

The Using Find-> Enter find mode (function: /) causes a small text box to appear in the bottom right of the window and it is very unnoticeable and small. I often find myself triple slashing (///) because I cannot tell if I am in find mode or not.

Could we have the find text box appear larger and closer to the top in a similar manner, although not size, to the Bookmark Search or History Search finder.

I was thinking about changing the font size across all of vimium to Chrome's default, and moving the find box (and the rest of the vimium HUD stuff, except the vomnibar) up to the top right, since this is where Chrome puts the find UI and seems more in line with Vimium's goal of being more approachable to non-vim users...
