The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432559 "There is not an obvious way to close the nautilus search, see "nautilus_search_current.png". The "Back" button is not a best choice here, because instinctively peoplelook for a "close" possibility, something like "nautilus_search_proposal.png" or "nautilus_search_proposal2.png". Or probably the best solution would be just to open search results in a new tab :)" See also https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332078
This problem has been fixed in the development version -- a toggle button is available in the main toolbar. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
