I'm a pretty big fan of sakura, which is a smallish binary with few
dependencies.  I see the rest of this conversation turned into
recommendation for an alternative desktop.  That's fine if you want big
change, but you can get an alternative terminal without doing so.   As
terminals go, sakura does most of what you want, but not Ctl-F find.
There's also rxvt-unicode in the raspbian package repository.

Roxterm might be your best bet.  That does even the control-F find thing.
I've just discovered it myself.  Seems lightweight, and you can have it
without bringing in a whole new desktop.

Have fun.
