When using the "Find in page" option it is sometimes (very) difficult to find the currently highlighted matching text. I would find it helpful to have the ability to make the currently highlighted item flash, or change color -- some kind of visual activity to catch the eye.

Increasing accessibility for the "find in page" is important. I use "Highlight all" and Ctrl-F routinely and it works quite well -- EXCEPT the active found element is some colour that I can't identify  (it changes colour as soon as Firefox loses focus, so my colour-identification software can't tell me what colour it is) and which doesn't stand out; and all the non-active elements that match are a nice blue (EF0FFF, which matches the ui.textHighlightBackground value). I'm desperate to change the active found element to EF0FFF because that stands out to me, and the non-active elements to the other (green or orange or light red or whatever it is) which doesn't stand out unless I look for it. I can find config setting for ui.textHighlightBackground and that matches the all-highlighted elements, but I can't find where the colour for the active element is set.
