I created a little web app to generate strings which match a given regex: http://regexicon.com
It's useful to ensure you're not matching things that you don't mean to, which is a problem I often see when code reviewing regex.

While it takes some getting used to I'm of the opinion that Google's implementation of this is correct and more usable than the alternative.
The search results are a UI widget and it's reasonable and correct for you to navigate between results with the arrow keys once that control is focused. This is similar to something like a file explorer where the arrow keys select between files or folders rather than scrolling the window.
