Using the instant-search that's in the top left of main screen

How do you use the instant search that is in the top left of the main screen, the one with a magnifying glass? Is it intended to allow you to open up a constituent? If I type someone's name in there, I can click on them in the drop-down menu but nothing happens.

====EDIT====
This capability works as-intended (click a name to open the record) in Internet Explorer. I am assuming it also works as-intended in Firefox.

It does NOT work in Google Chrome and I don't think it works in Safari (I use both, and both are based on the Webkit renderer). Guess I'll use a different browser for now.

In CiviCRM 3.1 we have improved this feature. Now you can select and hit enter (return) and it will take you that contact.

You can check this on our public sandbox.
