Disappearance of inline search bar steals focus

Hi everyone!

There is something very annoying with the new search bar that appears when you start an inline search (hit "." or "/"). I hope anyone has the same issue:

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. go to a web page of your desire
2. hit "." to let the search bar fade in and type something that can be found on the page
3. (everything is darkened and the search word is highlighted)
4. hit F8 to get focus to the address bar (or simply click it) before the search bar disappears
5. write something
6. when the search bar disappears focus is stolen from the address bar and you can't type any longer

This also happens when you set focus somewhere else eg. to an input element on a web page.

Can anyone confirm this behavior?
