Hi Benjamin,

I see your point, and yes, the search results disappear when switching tabs.
What I thought could be a possible implementation is that upon executing tab switch event, the program would check whether or not the search box is open and text appears in it. If true, it would automatically perform the search again on the new active document.
Does that make sense (or sounds user-friendly)?

btw - Will do re. mailing list in future. Was actually looking for a place to post feature requests, but couldn't find it...
