When viewing a page such as http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/,
if you use the "find in this page" option and search, for example, for just the
letter 't', and turn highlight on, the items in the left-hand pane become corrupted.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/
2. Search in the page for "t" (not including quotes)
3. Turn on the "highlight" option


Actual Results:  
Words in the left-hand panel become reformatted in an unnatural and unreadable way.

Expected Results:  
No change to the formatting of the text in this panel should have occurred
except for the highlighting.

That's because the mozilla.org stylesheets style a <span> in a <li>, which is
what the find highlighting inserts.
