Describe the feature

I am a (neo)vim user that is exploring Zed and I am really happy with it so far, really good work! One thing i am missing though is to highlight/search for a string under the cursor using * across all open (visible) files. As it is now it highlights all occurrences but only in the current file. I usually have multiple split views open and would want to have the highlight present in all of them.

It would also be nice if it was possible to move the search bar to the bottom or even if it was possible to opt out of the ui for it.

In the screenshot below i would expect ctrl to be highlighted in both splits
