bug 1: search display position isn't maintained:
if you select in the search menu: display position middle the view should
be placed, so that the match is placed in the middle of the viewing field.
this works fine for the first match and if the next match is outside of the
current view. but if you have several matches close by, with each new match
the cursor moves upward in the viewing field until it reaches the second
line from above.
bug 2: problem with search wraparound in large files
if you search in a large file for a text and npp wraps-around / starts again
at the document beginning, the view for the first match isn't placed where
the cursor (the text match is), but instead somewhere else.
how to reproduce:
create a file with many lines (~30.000 here), place two (or more) matches
in it and search for it using wrap around.
