Details

When you do a find-in-page and happen to have your mouse hovering a link (very hard not to do on the Bouncer admin page, for example, which is basically an entire page full of links), the status overlay appears showing the URL of the link you're hovering, and the find-in-page-induced scrolling does not scroll up far enough to reveal the text that was found, because it's hidden behind the status overlay.  This leaves you scratching your head wondering where the heck the thing you just found is for a minute until you realize it's under the status overlay and you manually scroll up further to reveal it.

This is mighty confusing to the end-user.

Looks like this was already fixed, just today... :)  No wonder I couldn't find a bug in my searches.

Thanks!
