Comment:

 Why would you ever want to find the last occurrence first?

 You want to find the most recent ''conversation'' that the search term
 appears in, but ''within'' that conversation you want to find the
 ''first'' occurrence of the word and then progress through the
 conversation chronologically.  (Unless you're

 Also, the match should be shown centered in the window, not at the very
 the top, so you can read it in context.
