Does anyone know of an add-on, tweak or other method that overrides or disables the default hidden Google Search controls, exposing them automatically?

The latest design meme is to hide things designers think clutter the look of a webpage. If you want to see the hidden controls and their functions you need to click once, twice or more.

Google recently changed the search page to hide the left-hand, vertical controls under a drop-down menu labeled Everything. I use these controls all the time to filter out miscellaneous information and get better, more focused search results. It is irritating to constantly click one, twice, three times to see the controls I need to use.

You don’t see it.

Now you do.

And after two clicks even more!
