User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0 Build ID: 20170628075643 Steps to reproduce: After killing old extensions we really missing this functionality, especially for long documents. For screen and detail you can see this old addons: https://addons.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/addon/scrollbar-search-highlighter/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/findbar-tweak/ I'm not sure where this should be report, for WebExt or general section. For example, Chrome has it done out-of-the-box, but controlling this behavior (like color/size marker on the scroll bar) by WebExt would also be useful.
This needs to be a core feature of the browser before any functionality can be exposed via WebExtensions. Marking as a duplicate of bug 259640.
