I noticed this some time ago when writing an mail I think. I never thougth more
about it but for some minutes ago I discovered the problem again.

I was typing an answer to a private message at Sweclockers forum
(http://forum.sweclockers.com/) and all of the sudden Firefox started searching
for the letters I typed. Now I've turned of "Find as you type" but I like that
function alot (great function, love it) so it's disturbing to have it turned off.

(The bug with / and ' in textareas were really distrubing in this bug report,
but that bug is already submitted.)

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce
Steps to Reproduce:




Currently running "Industrial" theme, but I've discovered this bug in the
original theme as well.
