MATLAB: Are Ctrl+F and Ctrl+B unable to work as expected with Emacs keybindings, in the MATLAB 7.0 (R14) Editor

emacskeyMATLABmodesequenceshortcut

When using Emacs key bindings in the MATLAB 7.0 (R14) Editor, I use the following key sequences:
 Ctrl+S abc Ctrl+F
or
 Ctrl+S abc Ctrl+B
Ctrl+S correctly enters search mode, and typing "abc" finds the string "abc". However, Emacs Cursor Motion Commands such as Ctrl+F and Ctrl+B, which are supposed to operate relative to the location found by the search, instead operate relative to the cursor position before the search started.
