The "Find on Page" feature in the "legacy" Edge have the really usefull options: "Match whole word" and "Match case" which, as the names suggest, enable as to find on a page for a whole word and/or make a case-sensitive find.
The Find on Page in the new Chromium-based Edge lacks these options and we really need these to be implemented

In addition, I would like the find on page box to be under the favorites bar as in Edge Legacy, rather than covering the favorites bar.

@leonidev Find on page in legacy edge works across all tabs without having to manually select the option after switching tabs. It stays there and tab switching does not affect it in an way.
Find on page in new edge simply disappears after you go to another tab. You need to find it in 3 dot menu again and click on it -Same thing with extra time and clicks. If you have thirty tabs open and you are researching a particular topic, it is a pain in the neck to do so. On projects of larger scale, it is simply unviable in new edge.

I second all of the above, we urgently need a better Search / "Find on Page" feature to enhance search especially for business, educational and scientific purposes.
This would also put Edge ahead of Chrome for everyone relying on this feature and encourage Firefox users to switch, because FF offers all of these advanced options.
Honestly the very rudimentary search function is the main reason that keeps me and many others working in a professional environment away from switching to Edge.
So please pass this feature request to the developer team.
To sum it up, here's what we'd like to see:
Thanks in advance and best regards
