That is negation by failure. You can enter subscripts using the symbol
completion mechanism, e.g. via "\sub". I've specifically made this work
for both the main text area and certain GUI text fields, although there
are differences in some details.
The reason is that when pressing C+e, the focus will switch to the main
buffer (and thus I will insert the subscript via ⇩ in the main buffer
instead).
That is an interesting effect that I did not know yet, but it is probably
normal according to how jEdit manages keyboard events -- as a fall-back
they usually end up in the main text area.

Dear all,
on my linux (x86_64, Fedora 20) machine when using the find panel, I
cannot enter subscripts (same for superscripts) in the search field. The
reason is that when pressing C+e, the focus will switch to the main
buffer (and thus I will insert the subscript via ⇩ in the main buffer
instead).
Is this different on other platforms?
cheers
