The goal that was expressed here before is "(Ctrl-F) loop at end of results". But if we want the user to be able to enable/disable it, we have to change the GUI. Therefore, I think it is an opportunity to reconsider the function itself (should we add/change features ?)

-If the search restarts after the end of the results, I agree that the user should be notified. ( A was thinking about a message panel, or a text in the GUI, maybe with a counter, like "Hits: 1/23" ).

-In current versions, we can search for markers, do we want to remove this feature ? (that can already be found in the DRC window). I think we could remove it.

-Should we have a "find next", "find previous", and "search again" button. I am ok with these buttons.

-Agree: "Words" should stay

-"Match case" should stay

-Could you explain the topological order you suggest ? (like "reference", "value", "non-component" ?)

-I would like a counter of search occurrences, but I think it should not be using the BOM, as we can search for things that are not listed in the BOM. (we can for example search for silkscreens that are not related to components)
