Title:
  Feaqture request: Pressing Ctrl+F and then <RETURN> should repeat the
  last seach even if the cursor was moved since it was effectuated

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Libreoffice writer now contains the search dialogue I have always dreamt of: 
   - You press Ctrl+F
   - you don't have to wait till the dialogue appears. Just type the word you search for - and then press <Enter>

  Incremental search (the word processor searches while you type) would
  be even finer as would be the possibility to jump to the next search
  result by pressing CTRL+F again in the dialogue - but you can't have
  everything.

  If you do want to jump to the next search result it suffices to pres
  CTRL+F agin and to press <Enter> directly afterwards: The search
  dialogue will still remember what it was searching for.

  But if you move the cursor using the mouse to repeat your search you
  have to type in the word you were searching for again: When you move
  the mouse cursor the search dialogue seems to forget the last word you
  gave it.

  I would like it to remember instead.
