This used to be an awesome addon. But it's riddled with bugs on FF56. So its half annoyance, half usefulness.
These bugs are most annoying:
erroneously automatically closing the findbar when I start typing, even when the "Close the Findbar when it loses focus" feature is disabled.
breaks searching in pdf documents with FF's internal reader.
There's a big delay for the findbar to fill with the selected text in the page. So if I press ctrl+g too quickly the old expression will be searched.
(Also there's a feature that I increasingly miss. Disabling Firefox's awfully noxious incremental search feature. The way the findbar searches as I type scrolling away into random position before I finish typing what I wanted.)
