            Bug ID: 136161
           Summary: Ctrl+F should highlight the previously searched text,
                    for easy replacement
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ddascalescu+freedesktop at gmail.com

I think this is a regression vs. Calc v6. Reproduction steps:

1. In a sheet, press Ctrl+F
2. Type "old text"
3. Press Enter. The text will or won't be found - doesn't matter.
4. Press Esc. (Here, the user would perform other operations in the sheet)
5. Press Ctrl+F again.
6. Type "new text"

Expected result:
"new text" is the text to search for, replacing "old text"

Actual result:
The search text is "new textold text"

By contract, the Find and Replace dialog behaves as expected. If you press
Ctrl+H at step 5, the "old text" WILL be selected, and typing "new text" will
replace it.

Also, if you skip Step 4 (pressing Esc) and press Ctrl+F again at Step 5, the
"old text" WILL be selected.

I think Ctrl+F should select the search text every time.
