The function that searches in the current page should find also text inserted in
text boxes. Look at the URL above: it's the edit page for an article in a wiki:
it's very important to search in the text box contents. This was possible is
earlier versions (0.9 was fine).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go in a page with an edit box
2. Search for some text that's in the edit box

Actual Results:  
The contents of the text box is not searched.

Expected Results:  
The software should have found the text I'm looking for also in edit boxes.
Similar problem in Bug 252371.  Lots of comments there too, duping.

Reporter, if you feel this was done in error, please REOPEN.
