Just because I was curious, I added some code around line 225 of 
ThunarWindow.py to see what it would look like.

        close_button = gtk.Button()
        close_button.set_relief(gtk.RELIEF_NONE)
        close_button.set_border_width(0)
        close_button.set_focus_on_click(False)
        self.location_bar.pack_start(close_button, False, False, 0)
        close_button.show()
       
        cbbox = gtk.HBox(False, 0)
        cbbox.set_border_width(0)
        close_button.add(cbbox)
        cbbox.show()
       
        close_image = gtk.image_new_from_stock(gtk.STOCK_CLOSE, 
gtk.ICON_SIZE_BUTTON)
        cbbox.pack_start(close_image, False, False, 2)
        close_image.show()
        close_button.connect('clicked', lambda btn: 
self._location_bar_focus_out())

I personally don't care if it's there, but I know that there will be 
some people who trigger the find bar accidentally and think "What's 
this? I don't want this here. How do I get rid of it?".
