Dolphin's Latest Update & My GPS

Ok, so I have the latest Dolphin update, but now I see when I click on the browser it activates my GPS, and continues to run as long as the browser is open. I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this, and why does the GPS have to run when this browser is open?

if it is related to the google search thing, go to settings -> privacy and uncheck google search can know your location. I don't use dolphin, but on the regular browser, i leave the search on but since i turn gps off, the search just using my network location, not my gps.
 
I left my stock browser sitting on Google today with my gps trying to get a fix inside my building, phone got warm and ran the battery down a bit.
