[jlreq] In-page search fails on ruby-annotated text (#255)

r12a has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/jlreq:

== In-page search fails on ruby-annotated text ==
<i class="meta">This issue is applicable to all languages that use ruby markup (Chinese, Japanese, Mongolian, Korean).</i>

If text is marked up for ruby, browser's in-page search no longer recognises the text.  For example, if you search for 東京 on a page that has this markup:

```
<ruby><rb>東<rt>とう<rb>京<rt>きょう</ruby>
```

the search will fail to locate the word.



<b class="subhead">Specs:</b>
This is probably not relevant to W3C specifications.



<b class="subhead">Tests & results:</b>
<i>Interactive test</i>, [In page search will find text that has ruby annotations](https://github.com/w3c/character_phrase_tests/issues/44)<br>
<span class="fail">Gecko</span>, <span class="fail">Blink</span>, and <span class="fail">Webkit</span> browsers all fail to recognise strings when they have ruby text.

<!--

<b class="subhead">Priority:</b>
This is an obstacle to basic interaction with web pages.
