Yes, the search starts at the end of the selection, and stops at the start of the selection (or end of document, if wrap around is not enabled) -- this is pretty standard behavior, and is because the selection doubles as a “last match”, so we do (generally) not want to search that again.
That said, I have actually changed it for 2.0…
