Summary Inspector highlight doesn't update when page is scrolled

when the web inspector is used to 'inspect element', the page is dimmed except for the element which you are inspecting. however, when you then scroll the page, the rectangular "highlighter" remains stationary while the page moves below it. sorry if duplicate bug report, didn't see this error, but didn't check every single bug, either.

Created attachment 19874 [details] screenshot after scrolling This is from the same inspection of the word "dog". the page has been scrolled down a bit, but the highlighting remains fixed and therefore no longer over the word "dog"

Confirmed in Chrome 14.0.814.0 dev Highlighting for selected elements within the element inspector does not adjust positions when the page is scrolled. This happens on all pages that scroll. Just go to https://bugs.webkit.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=web+inspector+scroll, open the inspector, scroll down, mouse over <div id="footer" and depending on your window size, you'll see a highlight way too high, or none at all.
