Description Erika Ahlswede 2004-09-20 18:27:43 UTC 
At the moment, there seems to be no way to search for a "next result" with
GtkTreeView's typeahead find-- it's impossible to locate if you have, for
instance, a short-length result that's a subset of results higher in the list.

I think it would be better behavior if the typeahead would only search entries
in the table after the currently selected one.

Up and down will cycle through the results.
