Hi everyone,

The default search setup in sup seems to just pop up the whole thread in
the results, which helps a lot because you can easily find the
related context.

But, I often get stuck on threads that last for weeks and have many many
messages.  It's hard to find the actual messages that match the search.

Three things would help:

1) Toggle between the whole thread and the matching messages in the
thread view
2) Expand just the matching messages and collapse the others
3) When you hit / to search for text in the thread display, have a key
for next.

Do any of these already exist?  If not, which ones seem most likely to
be acceptable?

-chris

You can hit 'n' for the next match when searching.  (Not sure about the
others)
