Description libing wang CLA 2012-02-02 13:00:16 EST 
Currently in the result page if you click on the empty area of the match row, it will select it. The next/previous iteration will start from there.
This feature is missing for a file.

One more thing I realized interesting:
To select a match, it is quite easy because there is always space on the location column. But for files with long name, it might be hard because the location column is already filled with file location. In replace page, by the way, selecting file/match has no problem because they are not href links at all.

To a broader scope, not limited to search page, we should consider:
1. How do we style an item that is click-able but not actually an href.(All rows in replace page)
2. What is the gesture to indicate a row is selectable(e.g. all rows in result page)
