If you get problems with the filesystem scanning you can turn on the old filesystem scanning engine again.
Go to "Explorer Panel Settings" > "Display" tab > "Tweaking" section
And enable the settings
[.] Use old filesystem scanning engine
Then restart MC.
Jungle:
New filesystem scanning.
1. Go to 'big' folder like x:\windows or x:\users (tens of thousands; actually I can't provide more accurate values)
2. Switch to List View
3. Enable Flat View
4. After scanning scrolling via keyboard gets broken. Cursor can be moved but file list is not scrolled until scrollbar is clicked.
View mode switching.
After changing view mode via UI (clicking btton and choosing mode from menu) focus remains onto panel with buttons (root/view mode/free space/device dropdown). I think it should go onto the active file panel.
Hotkeys
If Quick Search is done via Ctrl+Alt+[Letter] or Alt+[Letter], then other Ctr+Alt+ (Alt+) based shortcuts don't work. I think MC should warn a user in both cases:
a) in Customize keyboard wizard when user tries to set Ctrl+Alt / Alt based shortcut while the same Quick Search is enabled;
b) in Explorer Panel settings when user tries to set Ctrl+Alt / Alt based Quick Search while having the same based shortcuts.
P.S. Flat view was tested on Intel i-5 3570 CPU, 8 Gb RAM, Win7 Enterprise.

I can confirm that "MC.FileSearch.Search" option "SEARCHINALLSELECTED" works as expected (very useful, BTW) and
"MC.FileSearch.Search" option "HIDE" is fixed :)

I will see if it is possible.. Problem is that everything is plugins.. and thats great since I can add new features easier.. BUT it also means that each module does not what the other module is doing. So I'm not sure if 'A' is possible.
Maybe B is ..

Beta build 2211 has various fixes with custom command MC.FileSearch.Search
But there are many options and I might have missed some.
So if you have any issue with this command lets me know..
