Coloured 'hotspots' on the scroll bar to show where matching references are

There's already been a suggestion to add next/previous matches, and this doesn't replace that, but helps to show where in the script the next match is (a bit like the difference highlighter on the vertical scroll bar in SQL Compare)

    I thought the early versions had this feature already - must be mistaking it for something else. Definitely need this - especially since there isn't a "next/previous" feature. As it is, it's too easy to miss references.

    I voted for this as I've found it very helpful to use a similar feature in SSMS 2016 - map mode for the vertical scroll bar. For reference, this is accomplished in Tools - Options - Text Editor - Transact-SQL - Scroll Bars - Behavior - Use map mode for vertical scroll bar and, my preference, Source overview: Medium.
