Hi!

Is it possible to add color highlighting for the current selected search item? When searching for keywords with /, all items are highlighted and when navigating with n and N back and forth to the next/previous item you can't actually see where the cursor is at the moment.

See attached file man magick (taken from imagemagick man page)

I'm not a less expert by any means, but it seems like it simply doesn't support this. The closest related switch I can see is this one: https://github.com/gwsw/less/blob/master/less.hlp#L150

Maybe once #1540 is done, there will be more options available here :)
