            Bug ID: 354133
           Summary: Search as you type generates multiple anoying "end of
                    document found, start at beginning?"
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.21.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: lucas.hartmann at gmail.com

While search as you type is useful, if the entered text is not found in the
rest of the document (current position and forward) the current implementation
generates multiple queries to check whether the user wants to start search from
the beginning of the document.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any document (tested with PDF).
2. Scroll down several pages.
3. Try typing anything-that_comes_to'your=mind.

Actual Results:  
Query windows at every key typed, if text is not found.

Expected Results:  
Assume default answer to either yes or no, do the search, and fail silently.
The red highlight on the search text entry should be enough clue.
If the user still hits the ENTER key then the search should generate an
error/warning/query window.
