Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a post and add a small amount of text
  2. Search for one of the words in the text

Result: notice that the search results are double what they should be and you have to cycle through the content once before you start seeing words get highlighted in the edit area—very impractical for posts with a lot of content

From codebykat

I wonder if it's also searching the hidden TinyMCE textarea?

It appears that this is related to the background preview iframe and will be incidentally fixed by #517.
