Currently, to search in a webpage, one needs to type shortcut Ctrl-F. Because this is such a common action, it would be very convenient to be able to search automatically when typing. This feature is called ‘Find as you type’ in Firefox. This obviously should be a configurable option, as it is in Firefox, because many people use the keyboard differently when browsing.
