Re #17563 (comment) . The find widget is incremental, which means it will try to search for the keyword in the find widget once it's changed and move the selection to the nearest match, that's why when we delete characters from the find input box, the selection will finally shrink to one character. However once the find widget is empty, we don't try to set the selection to an empty one. This behaves the same as Visual Studio's find widget.
