  "Search for the next region that has text property PROPERTY set to VALUE.
If not found, the return value is nil.  If found, point will be
placed at the end of the region and an object describing the
match is returned.

PREDICATE is called with two values.  The first is the VALUE
parameter.  The second is the value of PROPERTY.  This predicate
should return non-nil if there is a match.

Some convenience values for PREDICATE can also be used.  `t'
means the same as `equal'.  `nil' means almost the same as \"not
equal\", but will also end the match if the value of PROPERTY
changes.  See the manual for extensive examples.

If `not-immediate', if the match is under point, it will not be
returned, but instead the next instance is returned, if any.

The return value (if a match is made) is a `prop-match'
structure.  The accessor avaliable are
`prop-match-beginning'/`prop-match-end' (which are the region in
the buffer that's matching, and `prop-match-value', which is the
value of PROPERTY at the start of the region."
