So we have:

- type maps<tab> (four keystrokes)
- in some cases you need to then click in the URL bar
- click on the "go" button
- now type in your search
- now click on "Search maps"

vs:

- type your search
- select maps from the search dropdown

Hmmm, I know which I prefer ;)

You can't even appear to short cut it by typing your search, in the
toolbar you could type "maps:blah" into the toolbar search and go
straight to the map search result. In Chrome instead you get the normal
Google search result page which you then need to click through to get to
the map.

ctrl-f doesn't even come close to the toolbar functionality, even if it
lets you search the page it doesn't do things like multiple keywords
each highlighted in its own colour.
