It may not be a bug, but I think it is not intuitive :

when you select a text and then do Ctrl+f, the field does not contain the
selected text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a page where there is text (easy)
2. Highlight a word (example foo) with the mouse (by double clicking on it for
example)
3. Type Ctrl+f
4. The field contains the last research (bar) and not the selected word (foo)

Actual Results:  
the ctrl+f field contains bar

Expected Results:  
the ctrl+f field contains foo
