DevTools: Can't ctrl-f search in Headers section in Network

Reported by teo8...@gmail.com, Feb 16 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open the Developer Tools
2. Open the Network tab
3. Click on a request
4. Click somewhere on one of the panels on the right where the request and response headers are shown. For example, click somewhere in "Form Data"
5. hit Ctrl+f
6. type a string that has some match within "Form Data"

What is the expected behavior?
Should find and highlight the matching string in the panel currently shown on the right, e.g. Form Data

What went wrong?
Not only it doesn't, but it searches in the request urls on the left, and if it finds some match, it highlights it, closes the panel on the right with the request data you were inspecting, and even deselects the request that you were inspecting.

So, (1) you can't search within request headers, form data, cookies, response contents, anything in the details of a single request that you inspect on the right panel, and
(2) if you try to, you even lose track of what you were inspecting.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

I find myself copying and pasting the content of the panel into a text editor in order to do a text search in it. Fucking pathetic.

Thanks for the request, there's currently search in requests, Preview, Response, but not headers.

Not having search in headers may be considered a feature request (to me it's as much of a feature request as asking for "support for letter A" would be a feature request for a keyboard).

However, the behaviour where Ctrl+F does a search in a tab unrelated to the focused one, just because the currently focused tab is not searchable, and causes the focused one to even close, is a BUG.

New search view now does headers search and is bound to Ctrl+F.

When is this supposed to roll out?
I'm still observing the issue exactly as described.
