Make sublime search outside selection when the search string is longer than the selection

It's very easy to select a character or a word by mistake before you make a search. Then when you search, you are limited to that selection.

It's not a big annoyance, mind you. But I think it happends often enough to make it worth fixing it! 

My suggestion is quite simple. Make sublime search outside the selection if the searchstring is longer than the selection.

It only makes sense, really.
