For example, if you have <textarea>Some Text</text>, open the Find Toolbar, search for "Some", the text within the <textarea> will not be picked up. The highlight seems to work on such text, however. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. View a page with a <textarea>. Add some text into the field. 2. Search for the text using the Find toolbar. Actual Results: The text will not be "found". Expected Results: The text would be found, and the cursor moved to the relevant position in the textarea (as it does when searching for other text on a HTML page).
