Hi Brendan, hi mutt developers,
sorry for late answer.

> Synopsis: wish: target line for searching in builtin pager
Request was:
| By default the matched line is just glued at the top.
| Is there something like a target line for the search function
| in the builtin pager? (Something like -j for `less'?)

Less is no everyday alternative as a pager in mutt. IMHO there
is no need for a configuration variable but for a sane default:
Search results are more useful when presented with context
(e. g. in the mid of the screen).
Ciao, Gregor
