I don't even understand what that should mean (TP5 is too long ago, a 
memory of an old pc, dos, and my childhood...)

For the example, how is the default search string determined? Word under 
caret, selection (only none persistent, but then what if persistent), 
something else?

At what time does it get extended? Before starting the search, or when 
the search dialog is open?

Does not mean I have plans to do anything on it. I am just curious
