AFAIK Bugzilla has always had this mis-feature. The worst thing is it's not 
consistent - if you didn't have a bug "list" (previous search results) then it 
will stay on the current bug.

I've even heard of a Firefox add-on that will override this behaviour, but I 
never looked into it.

Cheers,
Paul
