Bug Description

Hi,

usually if a keyword is doubleclicked all other occurrences are highlighted.
However if more than 2 keywords are highlighted then a subsequent mouse-wheel action triggers a screen scroll to the first selected keyword, the current screen scroll is lost.
Is it a feature or a bug?
How can I keep the current scroll position?
