Description:
Screenshot in Chrome of issue

I just noticed that if you search for "watch" on a wiki page using ctrl+f and iterate through the results, the text "watch" appears under the watchlist star. Or, if you are watching the page, "unwatch" appears.

This only happens once you iterate through the result that is the watchlist button. After the text appears, it remains exposed (even changing when you watch or unwatch the page) until the page is refreshed.

Using vector skin, I have XP, and it occurs on IE and Chrome. Is there a way to fix this, or just change the star to the text "watch" and fix some other bugs while we are at it?
