mouse paste from copied highlighted text [colred text] into search bar locks up
browser in 100% kernel

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. do a google search and go to cached
2. Control + f to open search window 
3. select color highlighted text 
4. middle mouse paste into search box 
5. watch the kernel go to 100% for a minute

Actual Results:  
after 1 minute the "search" ends displaying much more than was pasted in:

	exhaust 	grill 	stainless 	miele

(using "basic page style").  The copy function seems broken. The selected text
does not parse out the TEXT from the highlited stuff.

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr><td><font face=arial,sans-serif
color=black size=-1>These search terms have been
highlighted:&nbsp;</font></td><td bgcolor=#ffff66><B><font face=arial,sans-serif
color=black size=-1>5&nbsp;</font></B></td><td bgcolor=#A0FFFF><B><font
face=arial,sans-serif color=black size=-1>exhaust&nbsp;</font></B></td><td
bgcolor=#A0FFFF><B><font face=arial,sans-serif color=black
size=-1>grill&nbsp;</font></B></td><td bgcolor=#99ff99><B><font
face=arial,sans-serif color=black size=-1>stainless&nbsp;</font></B></td><td
bgcolor=#ff9999><B><font face=arial,sans-serif color=black
size=-1>miele&nbsp;</font></B></td></tr></table>



Expected Results:  
parsed the text from the highlights in selecting
Could you try in 1.5beta1 please.  1.0.4 is v. old

WFM. I'm pretty sure I recall seeing some bugs about crashing when dragging text
into the Find bar, but I guess they are fixed in 1.5.
