Description

When searching for a word in the main search bar (on the left panel), and then clicking on a result:

• the page opens
• the page is not scrolled to the first occurrence of the word.

I have a hypothesis that I haven't tested yet:

• I think this occurs primarily when the page that is being opened has reached the editable-word-limit thingy: ie, it opens in read-only mode, not in edit mode.

Whether the hypothesis is true or false doesn't matter, the behavior is not the expected one, in my humble opinion.
I see myself having to search first on the left panel, then close the search bar that opened at the bottom, trigger it again using Cmd+F, then search again the word within the page to force the scrollbar to focus on the highlighted terms.

This is something I frequently use and I assume i'm not the only one, so I'd say it's a critical issue.

No, this just isn't supported / implemented at all.
