Excel 2010: Search function - Write over last searched term after search is completed

When using the search/replace function, I find it extremely annoying that I have to delete the last searched term every time before entering the next. In a lot of other programs, the last searched term is automatically marked/"blackened" once the search is terminated, and you can then simply write over it, but not in Excel.

Is there any way (hidden option, extension, whatever...) to get Excel to do this?

Here's a picture to clarify what I mean:
