Yes, if you install the Mate desktop, you'll get the Mate terminal. I've
never had the problems you describe with tabs, and it as a search within
the buffer option from the menu.

The Mate desktop is slightly heavier on resources than LXDE, but can be
handled easily by the Pi 2 or 3. There are lots of other things that
make it far nicer to use than LXDE or the other extreme light weights.
