This is implemented in every major browser except Safari. I don't know whether it's even possible to implement this in WebKit, but it would be a useful feature to have.

    I forgot how much I needed this. Been wondering why I feel so... off... while doing find-in-page! Yes please.

      Avoozl the right side of find field already has this number ?

          Vlad I wasn't referring to the number. This is what I meant:

            See image. Chromium based browsers have this neat feature where when searching something, it will have indicators along the scrollbar for all the matches on the page. I find this extremely useful for visual grepping of the search results without having to explicitly scroll through the entire page or hammer Enter to find all results. Every time I use a WebKit-based browser I find myself missing this feature. It would be awesome if it could be added!

                I really missed this feature in Safari, so I installed Orion just to be able to install some Firefox/Chrome extensions to make this possible. These plugins didn't work, and Orion doesn't have this 'multiple keyword highlight' function in the scrollbar built in. A real bummer. I hope you guys can fix this!
