[Feature Request] Allow Preview to show what's searched

[Txaverria]

Hello all,

I love MarkEdit, and therefore the MD Preview plugin, but I believe it'd be nice if you were able to Ctrl+F/Cmd+F and see what you find both in the preview and the regular text view. Would this be possible?

Example of -italic- not being shown in the preview

Example of -bold- showing in the regular text but not the preview

Thank you for the feedback.

I believe this is a reasonable request, but we should clarify our expectations.

Searching text in preview mode will be quite different from editing mode. We cannot simply reuse the same UI.

This requires careful consideration and significant effort.

In edit mode, we use CodeMirror's built-in search because it only renders the visible viewport. It provides a robust set of options and works well for this use case.

In preview mode, we need to rely on the browser's native "Find in Page" functionality.
