I've used SearchJumper for a little over a year or two now. I enjoy it a lot, and I was hoping to have a feature implemented.

I think it would be helpful to have link data embedded in URLs so users can jump to searched text in a page, and then be able to bookmark it and come back to that same search result or line in the webpage, for ease of access, and to share pages to other users who have SearchJumper installed.

Essentially, what I mean is that in the settings of SearchJumper, there will be a toggle to turn on the option to embed the search data into the URL, much like UTM data or referral pages. In my example below, I have used "webfinder" as the parameter, where this link would bring you to the section in a transcript saying "That's the way these things happen."
On top of this, it would be nice if there was an index counter, being able to scroll to the nearest to the center to select the wanted instance and automatically change the URL index (example), or to click on the rendered highlighted term to copy the link for it.
The current example below works with Tampermonkey on Firefox at the least, as I used Tampermonkey v5.3.3 and Firefox Nightly 139.0a1.

Attached is a snipped of code I had generated using an LLM, specifically ChatGPT.
I can't code for my self very much at all, so that's why I have this here.
