Comment #13 on issue 841 by gmatht: Need '/' keyboard shortcut for  
initiating search
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=841

I'll note that on Linux, '/' is a standard way of searching for text. For  
example,
this works in evince, the default Ubuntu PDF viewer. I would be nice if  
this worked in
chrome as well, at least on the Linux version. I still instinctively  
press '/', even
though I have used chrome for a month. Additionally, unlike other  
applications, Chrome
puts the search bar in the top right rather than the bottom left. At is  
stands, Chrome
is fighting both my muscle-memory and my eye-memory; I have to think "wait  
I am in
chrome, so '/' doesn't work, Oh, and the search box wouldn't appear there  
anyway" each
time I search for text.
