Details

This is a spinoff from bug 110983. If you use the find dialog on a bug page, it detects the (hidden) occurrences of the word you searched for in the dropdown lists. Try searching for "Windows" in this page. You will have to hit "Find" 8 times before you get here because there are 7 occurences of "Windows" in the OS dropdown list. This is highly confusing. I suppose we get the same problem on other pages. I suggest skipping dropdown lists from search or at least give some visual hint by selecting the dropdown or something similar. Linux, milestone 0.9.6
