New issue 20028 by hirsch.will: Disable or defer "Find in page" for MIME  
types that are not text/*
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20028

Chrome Version       : 4.0.202.0
URLs (if applicable) :
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdfs/acrruserguide.pdf
Other browsers tested:
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 4: FAIL
   Firefox 3.x: OK (disables)
          IE 8: OK (disables for keyboard, defers in menu)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Visit a URL like the one above
2. Switch to another tab to take keyboard focus away from the Adobe Reader
plugin
3. Switch back to the previous tab
4. Invoke "Find in page" with Ctrl+F or via the page menu

What is the expected result?
Either:
a. Nothing
b. Adobe Reader's in-built Find bar activates

What happens instead?
Chrome's "Find in page" is displayed, but can never find anything because
it doesn't handle the text in the page.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

Disabling "Find in page" for these situations should be trivial; see Issue
9562 which dealt with a similar problem. Ideally, if the non-text/* content
is an external plugin like Adobe Reader, Chrome should pass the command, or
keyboard combination, to the plugin.
