Display current search text

Currently it's not possible to see exact text you are searching for. It can be handy to have small badge in the corner of the editor displaying current search, to see if you mistyped something, for example.
This is a good idea and could probably be added as an option. But in general, the text you are searching for will always be highlighted and visible. If the query is not in view, this means it does not exist in the document.
Hi,I would like to add that this would be a very wise addition for me as well. I understand the want to be minimalist but something like the Incremental Search feature would be perfect. The popup is minimal and appears right above the text editor.
This removes a whole layer of ambiguity when searching. I think the "Search for:" in front is redundant, of course. I bet it would be possible to extend that balloon to cover the whole width of the editor and create a makeshift status bar with contextual information!!! Damn that just made me want to get into plugin development.
