Details

Now that we have code mirror, Cmd+G and Cmd+Shift+G will cycle through search results, however this is pretty undiscoverable. Would be nice if we had an obvious way to do this in the UI.

Just as a note, the common UI for searching is Ctrl+F to start the search and hitting Enter/Shift+Enter repeatedly to toggle through the matches. In addition to that there are normally Up/Down buttons as visual UI. Sebastian

Note that Bug 1946793 should make the current situation a bit better (the UI won't close, and [Shift+]Enter will cycle through results)
