It is annoying that search executes immediately instead of triggering on enter keypress, especially when a web page is big. Is there any way to disable auto-search and trigger it only when you press enter?

If you want to understand better it's pretty similar to this VS Code issue.

You would have to paste the text (i.e. type if elsewhere and use Copy/Paste) or select this text on the webpage if you want to search for more occurrences to prevent starting the search while typing. I don't know if there is an extension that waits for the Enter key.
