Incremental, search-as-you-type search and replace

Submitted by Stefano Facchini Link to original bug (#733346)
Description
What I mean is that, for instance, after typing something in the search entry, it doesn't jump immediately to the first occurrence. Instead, a label shows "n matches found" and wait for interaction.
More generally, it seems that the search entry doesn't grab the keyboard input but allow for normal interaction with the textview.
I don't know if this is by design, but I found it confusing and unexpected. I'd prefer a gedit-like behaviour (an overlaid entry for search and something more complex for search-and-replace).
