Of course, I've dealt with many search problems using A* (in particular, in the context of machine translation). I understand the algorithm and the proof of optimality. And I agree, the algorithm is very simple (not much different than uniform-cost search)--the complex part (in more general applications) is the heuristic function.
I don't see where I dismissed A*.
