When tracing through code I find it's quite useful to highlight a variable and then execute a key stroke to find the next occurrence of it (i.e. what can set the variable) or a different key stroke to find the previous occurrence of it. It would be particularly useful if when highlighting something, jedit yanked it into an area of memory, such that if you then changed to a different buffer, you'd still be able to execute your key stroke but find the word you'd highlighted in the previous buffer.

Does anyone else think this would be useful? I can nearly achieve this using some macros but I'd like to see this feature as a standard part of jedit.
