[Feature Request] Allow Searching in the Markdown Preview Rendering

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

One feature that would make the Cursor Markdown preview renderer perfect would be if I could search (CMD+F) on the file with the full functionality like moving the cursor anchor to that spot and such.

Right now, searching can only be done in the raw file.

I strongly support this request. The new inline Markdown preview/editor flow in Cursor is excellent — it’s one of the most promising lightweight WYSIWYG‑style Markdown implementations I’ve seen in an IDE.

Because the preview accepts typing, and search doesn’t work, pressing Ctrl+F and starting to type actually edits the file underneath, which is easy to do by accident.

There’s no documentation yet describing this new WYSIWYG‑style layer. Apparently, Plan‑file preview had similar issues early on until search/copy behavior was improved. Adding search to Markdown preview would bring it to that same level of polish and make the WYSIWYG experience feel complete.
