Hi guys,

with the following solution (based on TYPO3 4.2.2) the search is only shown, 
if the list-module is activated for the current user (which was helpful for 
me):
In typo3/classes/class.backendsearchmenu go to render() (line 71) and 
directly under public function render() { add  the following:
global $BE_USER;
// In most cases the search-results are displayed in the list-module.
// Only render the search-item, if the user has access to the list-module.
if($BE_USER->check('modules','web_list')) {
... [here comes the whole function render()] ...
}
Then in the public function getAdditionalAttributes() (line 104) add the 
same:
public function getAdditionalAttributes() {
global $BE_USER;
// Only render the search, if user has access to the list-module.
if($BE_USER->check('modules','web_list')) {
     return ' id="backend-search-menu"';
}
}
