           Summary: [WK2] FindController should not assume that ports do
                    not want to highlight text matches
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: svillar at igalia.com


WK2's FindController assumes that clients do not want to highlight text matches. That's most likely because Safari uses the ShowOverlay option to dim the contents of the web page and then it renders some highlight on the overlay rectangles.

But other ports implementing the Find API (like GTK, see https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76070) might want to keep WK1 behaviour, i.e., to let WebCore highlight all the matches found.
