This was originally reported as a Chrome-only bug (https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=153379), but as more details came in it looks like this is a problem in Safari on Mac as well -- leading me to believe this is a general WebKit Find-in-page problem.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a web page, such as either of the two links above, which contains the "Disqus" commenting widget.
2. Cmd-F to bring up the "Find" box. Search for a string which is inside of the Disqus block. For example in the talkingpointsmemo link, search for "John Buaa". In the JoeMyGod link search for "grandmother"

What is the expected result?
The page scrolls to the first occurrence of the searched text, and the appropriate text highlights.

What happens instead?
The page does *not* scroll. If you manually scroll down to the first occurrence of the text, you will find it has been highlighted.

(If the page is very long of course maybe it will be difficult or impossible to find the little bitty highlighted text by manually scrolling.)

On the Chrome bug I saw this comment:
"I just tested and I reproduce this same problem on Safari Version 6.0.1 (8536.26.14) on OS X 10.8.2."
