Find Feature UI annoyance in Adobe Acrobat Pro

The Find feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro X has bothered me for some time now:

Adobe Acrobat's Find feature: note the size of the click-targets
Adobe Acrobat’s Find feature: note the size of the click-targets

The click-targets to find the previous or next occurrence of your search term are tiny. Minuscule. Verging on microscopic. Let’s say I’m searching a 600 page PDF on SharePoint and I’m looking for occurrences of the term workflow. As I click next repeatedly, trying to find the relevant section, I find that it’s very easy for my cursor to edge over just a little bit and close the Find dialog.

(Yes, I know: I can just keep pressing Enter and avoid this issue.)
