I think he wants to search for the selected text in the same file. 
"Find selected text" (which did that) doesn't exist anymore. It's now 
"Find selected text in project." It seems like a weird thing to take 
away. More often than not I don't want to search for the selection in 
the entire project like Xc3 wants me to, I just want to search in the 
current file.

I've been trying to get used to doing cmd-E, cmd-G instead but I keep 
trying to do things the old way too, which for me was accessing "Find 
selected text" from the contextual menu. Ah well.
