Documentation example works well if the autoHilite of the field is  
set to false but it makes really no sense to set an editable field  
without autoHilite...
Rev docs are very weak for beginners: they have been made for those  
who know yet...
And I agree: it's a pity :-(
BTW, using the 2.7 (and later) search engine allows to retrieve all  
occurrences of any expression in the dictionary: sometimes it may  
help...

Best regards from Paris,
