Public bug reported:
1. open a PDF
2. open the find functionality (<ctrl>-f).
3. type a common word like "the".
4. click on one of the matches on the left.
5. move to another page with "the" on it.
6. click the "find next" button (or <ctrl-g>).
EXPECTED:
one of the "the"s on the current page is highlighted.
ACTUAL:
the next the on the original page is highlighted.
COMMENTARY:
The problem is that I often use the find so that all the occurences of a word
are highlighted. I find a particular occurrence and then scroll while looking
at the context. There is no quick and easy way to know which match I am
currently looking at.
