Bug#580373: iceweasel: search does not work anymore once "phrase not found"

Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.5.9-3
Severity: normal

searching in a page works rather unintuitive.
firtsly, it is not clear from where it starts (it doesn't definitely not on top by default) and once the bottombar shows "Phrasew not found" it does not search anymore, neither does it start again from top nor does it search backwards.

even if there were several hits, if you press F3 once too often, you are stuck with "Phrase not found" and a defunct search functionality. one has to modify the search expression to make search work again.

as for reporting to mozilla's bugtrracker: while it is a sensible request, i am not going to do that -- i refuse to create an account for yet another site i most likely will never use again (and even more a site that requires a working email address as login name). it's up to mozilla.org to provide  a more userfriendly and efficient way to do that.
