YouTube Search becomes annoying when you can’t search other videos without stopping the current one. You’ve to stop your current video in order to search other videos.
Also, it is impossible to create a playlist of random videos while watching the current video. You’ve to rely on YouTube’s current playlist system. Creating the whole playlist then watching all the videos in it becomes boring.
Currently you’re:

Stop doing it!
