Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.2-1
Severity: wishlist

Eg. trying to find the "sasl" string in the "devscripts" info page:
interactive search immediately jumps to the Recommends field I was
precisely trying to understand, instead of finding the occurence in
the package description.

One possibility to make things better would be, even when the screen
is not scrolled away from the 1st match, to highlight the match, as
users have been gradually been used to (and which would be invaluable
in cases of the devscripts package and others with such a large
extended description).
