If the focus is inside an iframe, type-ahead find resets itself for each letter.
Eg, typing 'foo', this happens:
type 'f' -- status bar says 'looking for 'f''
type 'o' -- status bar says 'looking for 'o'' INSTEAD OF 'fo'

The work-around is to start the search OUTSIDE the iframe, then click into it,
and hit CTRL-G.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the Mozilla bug reporter
2. Look for a bug to get some results in an iframe
3. Click in the iframe (the results list) and type something!
