FF12 has "Improvements to "Find in Page" to center search result". How can I disable this centering?

FF12 came with new feature - centering of search result. This is rather annoying feature, when one searches for some small word or number on a bigger screen with at least 40-50 long lines of text, because it may be difficult to see the highlighted result.

I tried to find some setting for disabling centering of search result, but couldn't find any. Is there such setting? If not, are there any plans to implement it?

It also might be worth to give some setting like "show result 20px from bottom of window", so that result is not overlapped with URL's overlay, when link is focused.
