It appears CTRL-ALT-A still works for converting a search to "all folders" but CTRL-ALT-Z for "subfolders" is gone. Did this key-binding just get lost in the shuffle?

I've figured out most of the problem. In earlier Outlook releases, you could search subfolders just by hitting ctrl-alt-z after typing your search. Now you need to hit enter after typing the search terms, followed by ctrl-alt-z.
The remaining problem is there does not appear to be any way to pull up the search dialog with the keyboard when the ribbon is hidden.
