255334 - search in Japanese is inconvenient at Find Toobar.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 259454

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Hiro]

When pushing the "/" key and performing search by Find Toolbar, about English,
it can refer only to typing some.
But search is not started in Japanese.
(All the languages using IME may correspond.)

If the text input column in Find Toolbar is clicked with a mouse and a focus is
moved clearly, search in Japanese will become possible.
This is very inconvenient.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. "/" is typed.
2. IME is turned ON.
3. Japanese is inputted.

Actual Results: 
search in Japanese does not start.

Expected Results:
search in Japanese does start.

Is this the same as bug 255334?

Similar but different. Maybe fixed by the fix for bug 259454 though, so let's see.

A better description of this bug is

Steps to Reproduce:
1. type "/"
2. turn on the IME
3. press some keys to input characters for the IME that appears in the edit box
in the find bar

Actual Results: 
Nothing happens.

Expected Results:
The characters to be converted by the IME appear in the edit box.

While

1. type "/"
2. press some keys to input alphabet characters in the edit box in the find bar

this works, using IME doesn't work.

I think that these bugs are same.
