See: to any search a word in Emacs you have to either type it manually
or copy-paste it. And then if you get unlucky to have next match
offscreen, the search gonna carry currently visible portion of text
away.
In other editors and IDEs it's implemented instead by selecting a word,
which makes the editor to highlight matches. That's similar to what
highlight-symbol.el is doing: you put a caret over a text, and after a
short timeout (IIRC you can't set timeout to 0 as it introduces lags to
Emacs) it highlights visible matches of the symbol under the caret. And
then, if you want to, you can press a hotkey to lock the highlight.
