1. Check "use find as your type" in advanced options
2. Press an arrow key, Home, or End to scroll the page

Result: find bar appears (red).
Yeah, I noticed this right away.. very annoying. 
Also occurs with page up, page down, and backspace (momentarily, before going
back in the history).
seems to do it with.. pretty much any key

Enter key, Scroll Lock and Num Lock, F1 , F2, etc.
Summary: Pressing arrow keys, home, or end triggers Find bar → Pressing almost any key (arrow keys, etc) triggers the Find bar

If isPrintable was made to include charCode 192 through 255, would that include
the necessary international characters?
