Tried it out, but did not understand how to use it properly. Ie., it says "rapid scrolling to matches", but I could not find a key to do that? Perhaps I should explain what I am looking for: The default Firefox search has two huge usability issues: 1) it has no visual feedback for where the next occurence is. On a web page with lots of coloured text, moving the highlight does not stand out, especially when the entire page jumps at the same time. 2) It will go to occurences of text which are not visible, and have no indication of that fact. Combined with issue 1, this can cause lengthy manual eyeballing trying to find out where the search is. This extension improves on neither of these problems. I guess this extension can be useful for some, but it currently has no tangible benefit for me.
