Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating the existing terminal find and Cmd-G shortcut handling. Confirm how selected text is passed into search and which direction Cmd-G and Cmd-Shift-G currently use; done means Cmd-E searches the current selection and the navigation shortcuts match the requested directions.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
One of the features available at regular Terminal is the Cmd-E or "Find at selection" shortcut.  It lets me just select a phrase and search forward or backward.  Without this I have to Cut->Cmd-F->Paste->Enter.  

Also cmd-G or cmd-shift-G seems to be reversed-> cmd-G is previous instead of next occurrance
