[7.0.1.beta3] Closed search doesn't resume after re-opening in ePub reader

Hi!

I've noticed that closing and reopening the search bar in the ePub reader doesn't resume the search.

To reproduce:

Start a search by tiping "search"
Close the search by clicking on the looking glass.
Re-open the search by clicking the same icon.

Result: Nothing is highlighted, clicking the downward or upward arrows in the search pop-up does nothing. Only after clicking enter does the search start. The behaviour is different in the PDF reader, which makes me think this is not intentional.

    Good catch, thanks!

    I actually can't reproduce this - seems to do the same thing in the PDF reader. And on second thought, this might be the correct behavior - you don't necessarily (and probably usually don't) want to run the same search twice, and if you do, you can just press Enter after reopening the search popup.

    The behaviour in the PDF reader is a bit more curious on closer inspection; what seems to happen is:

    1. Opening the search pop-up and typing the search term -> Search term is highlighted in the PDF, I can navigate the occurences.
    2. Closing the search pop-up -> search term is no longer highlighted
    3. Opening the search pop-up again -> search term is not highlighted, but I can navigate the occurences by clicking the arrow buttons
    4. Clicking the downwards arrow once -> green highlight jumps to next occurance.
    5. Closing the search pop-up again -> the highlights remain visible.

    Doing the same in the ePub reader is not possible, because in step 3 clicking the arrow buttons doesn't do anything.
