But for me it would work better to use it against docs.racket-lang.org, so that synchronizing bookmarks across the systems that I use would work. Still, whenever I use a browser without my bookmark it will fail. So, across machines, accesskey would be always there, the only requirement being figuring out how to access the field -- alt, ctrl, ctrl+alt... For people unaware of the accesskey, nothing would change. They can still click on the search box, tab/shift+tab until it is focused, or use Neil's alternative.
