<p>Since the feature is already implemented I think it should be a little bit easier to just add an option such like "Always search for selected text".</p>

<p>Well, thats the whole point of the loooong discussion on <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="116938755" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/758" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/geany/geany/issues/758/hovercard" href="https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/758">#758</a>, changing the search string every time something is selected limits what editing actions can be used between searches (they have to <em>NOT</em> select anything or you lose the search string), but if its an option on the search dialog it should be ok.</p>
<p>Since it already loads the selection on opening the dialog, if CTRL+F (or whatever is configured as the keybinding for search) while the dialog is is already open, loads a new search from selection without closing and re-opening, thats also an acceptable enhancement IMNSHO.</p>
<p>Pull requests are welcome (and don't forget to document in the manual).</p>
