I can see your point but here two key presses makes more sense as it allows me the flexibility to decide whether I want that highlight to mean something. I am often blending cut'n'paste actions with search actions and it would be an extra key/mouse press for me to get the functionality I want. Different people have different work flows, and impossible to make everyone happy. However, in this case the extra-key press (which is easy as same modifier key and the E,F & G keys are all nearby) allows for greater flexibility and doesn't do unexpected stuff for newbie users. Horses for courses.
