Nautilus ignores the location of the mouse for the first click after a search for a directory

[Larry Hastings]

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open a Nautilus window pointed at a directory with some subdirectories.
2) Pick a subdirectory you wish to navigate to. It shouldn't be the first one.
2) Start typing the name of that subdirectory, so that Nautilus displays the "search" edit box in the lower right.
3) Type enough characters so Nautilus has moved the selection bar off the first entry. DON'T press Enter, and DON'T press Escape.
4) Using the mouse, click somewhere in the list-of-files area of the Nautilus window--say, on the subdirectory you searched for, or on the expansion triangle doodad to its left.
5) Nautilus will ignore the mouse's location, and instead pretend that you clicked on the upper-left pixel of the window. As a result, it expands the subdirectory entry currently at the top of the window, whatever that happens to be.

This doesn't happen for files, only subdirectories.

I noticed it in 8.10, maybe earlier, and it's still there in 9.04.
