The panel can be toggleable (default) or shown at all times and you can show or hide the languages field (see settings at the top of quick_find.tpl).
1) Upload attached quick_find.tpl to skin/common_files
2) In skin/common_files/admin/home.tpl and skin/common_files/single/home.tpl
Before...

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">

Code:
{* Quick Find Admin Panel *}
{include file="quick_find.tpl"}
{* / Quick Find Admin Panel *}
3) See
