That is, pressing Shift+F7 or 'n' first doesn't do anything, only goes to the next match when pressed again. The reason seems to be that when you search from the first byte of that special string (which is the letter or the underscore before the backspace) then it matches first. Later, when you search from the repeated letter after the backspace (that is, byte offset increased by two) then it matches again. An idea for a solution which I'm not sure about: the first match can easily be skipped: if haystack's second character is a backspace, then just simply pretend it doesn't match. This way only the second match is reported. I can't see at the moment whether it would have any effect on highlighting (e.g. the first character of the match wouldn't be shown as bold/underlined). It would be cleaner to report the first match and skip the second, but I can't see how that could easily be done. I also cannot see at the moment why backwards search finds everything only once, and not twice for bold text.
