I didn't see this bug as a dup of 320465 at first because it doesn't make a difference which letter was typed for this bug to show up. Of course you may see it different. :-)
That's because you probably have "begin finding when you begin typing" turned on, which makes this bug more likely to occur (since any keystroke can trigger it). Note the "(or other chars)" part of the summary of 320465...
