Find does not find things near the far end of chrome://settings/searchEngines

Reported by mr.ber...@gmail.com, Nov 12 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.89 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
(On my system, with ~150 custom search engines, youtube.com with short handle "yt" beingt the second-to-last one)
1. Open chrome://settings/searchEngines
2. Ctrl-F, Enter yt
3. Note 0/0 found
4. Scroll down half-way
5. F3
6. Note that still nothing found (0/0 hits).
7. Scroll down all the way
8. F3
9. Note that "yt" is actually found (1/1 hits).

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Well, alread after step 2, "yt" should be found.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 62.0.3202.89  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0

This is similar to  issue 687762 ,  issue 578323  - Material Design page uses an iron-list [...] without actually rendering them all on the page. This means that searching using the page's search field works differently than searching using Chrome's native Ctrl+F search.

Simply use the dedicated input field (see the screenshot).

Thanks, very interesting. Would there be a way for Chrome settings pages to capture Ctrl-F and use that dedicated search field instead of Chrome's native one? This would prevent this seemingly common misunderstanding of this "feature" as a bug.

I guess since I added 9-step repro instructions, if necessary, someone will get back to me with information about which step failed to reproduce.
Components: UI>Settings
Labels: M-64 Needs-Triage-M62 OS-Linux OS-Mac
Status: Untriaged (was: Unconfirmed)
Able to reproduce the issue on Mac 10.12.6, Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #62.0.3202.89 and latest canary #64.0.3270.0.
This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M59 old builds from the time md-settings was implemented. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Thanks...!!
