I'm a bit worried this makes it find only more confusing. I'd rather like to search for files like I search for pages in Goole, songs in Junk, or files in Windows. MHO, Find should use "*word*" internally by default.

Only Advanced users like to do stuff like wildcard matching, exact matching, or start-with matching. But fortunately, they're smart enough to figure out how to use regular expressions for that (^word$). This is not something you need to have prominently visible for all users.
