What appears to be happening is that when the find tool selects the text (in the WebCore\editing code), it makes it visible. This 'scrolls' it into view.

I think that as the text is in an overflow: hidden div this should be prevented somehow - either by clipping the rect for the selection (i.e. chop off the hidden overflow) or by preventing the scroll.

If anyone has any hints, clues, suggestions or comments feel free to chime in.

BTW the attached test case can be reduced further to:

<!DOCTYPE HTML> 
<style>
div {
  overflow: hidden;
  padding-top: 20px;
}

span {
  padding-bottom: 20px;
}
</style> 
<div><span>TITLE</span></div>
