When I do that on one of my local files (with an emacs I = built a few days ago) I do get the current match highlighted in purple = and the other matches highlighted in blue (after testing a region is = highlighted in a slightly different color). The cursor is blinking at = the end of the first match. So it looks as I wrote: this looks like a region, with a cursor blinking = where point it, but it does not act as one. What matters here is not the color, but the fact that point has moved = and something that looks like a region is formed. Hence the expectation. = And really, if that "object" exists on screen, I'd love to be able to = capture it somehow.
