Yes, global. I think we should keep the local toolbars as small as possible. 
They should only contain features that need to be set individual. But there's 
only 1 search dialog. So it could be opened either by a global menu entry, 
global button or like now RMB in the group manager.

RMB is ok. I don't want multiple instances by accident. So opening a second 
instance should be different from opening th efirst. Douple clicking would 
also be ok.

I want a feature where you can define which presenters are connected to each 
other. If I then change the key in one they all get updated. I also would 
like to see a scroll connection. If I scroll one bible, the other one 
scrolls, too. But thats for later.
