Feature request: Helpful for writing pseudocodes

Wished: If a string is selected, then all the same strings in the text are slightly light yellow (like in Visual Studio Code ... I would use this if there would be a good extension for previewing markdown documents, but I would like ReText to be better). For example I use in a section a function/method name. Then when I select it, I can ensure the name in the function/method is the same, so logic is not broken. Else I have to mark it, copy, call search box, search for it perhaps several times if mentioned several times besides the method name and then (if correct) I have to go back and remember the line I was working on or writing (requires a search to the line back, if forgotten to remember line, or because of another needed adjustment I forgot the line ...). For one time it saves namely only about 20s instead about 2s but with about 800 times it would cost without the feature about 4.67h and with this feature about 0.5h, so it saves about 4.1h in this exemplary use-case.
