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.
