 The new find feature offers the ability to do incremental finds,
 highlighting the "first" match while typing.  However, it's broken in that
 the "first" match is always the ''next'' one from the current cursor
 location, which is ''not'' at the beginning of the current match.

 In other words, if I type "foo" The "f" of the first occurrence will be
 highlighted after I type the first character; the "fo" of the ''second''
 occurrence will be highlighted after I type the second character; and so
 on.  In short, the incremental functionality should simply extend the
 selection on the current word as long as it continues to match the query
 string.
