Patch proposal:
-Add a "wrap" option->Search results implemented as a nested list.
-Allow to go back with a "Find previous" button
-Remove the marker search option
-Fix a DLIST issue
-Add a result counter ("eg: hit(s): 1/3")
-Search history limited to 10
-Fix the search history order from previous versions
-User can include or exclude references/values/texts from results

As for the things you suggested I did not do (or did differently):
-When the "wrap" option is enabled, there is no sound / message panel, because there is the result counter.
-As for now (with this patch), there is no sorting (X-Y) algorithm, but it should be easy to implement it. (There is even a comment to locate where the algorithm should go)

Before going any further, I would like to know if this solution is accepted :)

(I tried some searches, but I don't understand what the wildcards option is supposed to do)

I also attach a picture of the search window
