editor - highlight occurrences of selected word

[thehankinator]

I really like this feature in Notepad++ and VS2013. According to scintilla's website it should be supported. Feature is called "highlight.current.word".

highlight.current.word When set to 1, all occurrences of the selected word are highlighted with the colour defined by highlight.current.word.colour. By default, this option is disabled. (See indicators.alpha and indicators.under)

This feature would be very helpful in my work flow and from my understanding of the Scintilla documentation could be as easy as a 1 line of code to enable.

this is not the Documentation of Scintilla, it is the documentation of Scite,a Texteditor which uses Scintilla and is developed by the same guys developing scintilla. The implemntation is unfortuntly no one liner as you assumed. Why it should be no big Task, such Features could bring a big Performance Impact if not done right.
