Summary

Description

Find results are highlighted the same, whether selected or unselected. So when jumping between dense find results, it's impossible to keep track of the cursor. The cursor is hidden when moving by default, which makes this even worse.

Note that this doesn't affect the selection_highlight setting -- that highlights words in a lighter shade.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Type some text with repeated words
  2. Use Find to search for a word that is repeated
  3. Press enter to jump around between Find results

Expected Behavior: The selected word should look different from all the other results

Actual Behavior:
