Tell them to confirm to the existing user interface standards both for text editing and navigation!

I think the screen looks a bit ropey too. The navigation tabs just don't look right.
The navigation on the search screen is a little more complex than on others, but to clarify:

Green - used for Page Up (as is elsewhere).

Blue - could have been used for delete; however that relegates the "More Like This" functionality to an option from the (i) button programme info screen, hence the deviation.

Left button deletes characters while the text input field is highlighted (watch the arrow indication - you will see it change when switching highlight from the results area to the input field). Once you have results, left button will let you switch categories to the left unless you use the up button to put highlight back on the text input field or use number keys to change the search term.
