[TxMt] Re: Auto-highlight all occurrences of selected word

[George McGinley Smith]

I think this is a subtly different use case to CMD+OPT+F. What I've seen
elsewhere is an indication of the same text elsewhere in the current
document, not a multiple caret selection. So any currently highlighted text
would appear throughout the doc similar to how highlighting matching pairs
works now – something that doesn't require the user to do anything.
