      Please consider extending the "Find On Page" tool with options:
      • Match Case
      • Match Whole Word

      Example case: I was trying to search for occurrences of "A" (amperage) on a page, but it was literally impossible to find relevant places.

        @mjnoach I second that. Also make them mappable to keyboard shortcuts.

        E.g., in Microsoft Visual Studio

        4a25ed79-8bfc-47be-8cc8-08489d160c14-image.png

        Once the Find dialog is displayed you can then toggle case and/or toggle whole word using Alt+C and Alt +W.

        Then Esc to dismiss dialog.

          Maybe it wouldn't be the most popular functionality, but it surely would help Opera, as I've seen people desire this for the other browsers and witih no response.

            @radu-cloud I'm pretty sure that in Firefox Classic there was an extension for doing this.
