Eclipse Search Results are Missing When there are Exactly 404 Matches?

Specification

  • Eclipse: SpringSource Tool Suite
  • Version: 2.9.1.RELEASE
  • Build Id: 201203221000

What I do:

  1. Search -> File
  2. Containing text: "subheading"
  3. File name patterns: "*, !*jquery.js, !*min.js"
  4. Scope: Workspace
  5. Click 'Search'

What I expect to happen:

  • The Search tab will show search results for "subheading".

What happens:

  • The Search tab starts to find results and puts them on the tab.
  • The number of matches stops at 404 since there are exactly that many instances of "subheading" in my workspace.
  • The file/directory names of each result turns blank.

My Suggestion For Duplicating:

  • Make a test workspace with exactly 404 instances of a word.
  • Search for it.

My Theory:

The developers of Eclipse are messing with me. I hope this isn't true, but I don't see why else it would do this. Can anyone else duplicate this and/or explain it?

Update:

After much more use of Eclipse, this same result seems to randomly occur (file/directory names turning blank). It happens consistently when there are 404 results, but it also happens randomly with other amounts.
