Yeah - this makes sense. I use the option to start a new window with a blank page loaded, so when I hit Ctrl+N, I want focus in the address field so I can type where I'm going. However if I used a portal as my start up page, then I would expect focus to be on the content when I hit Ctrl+N as otherwise page-down wouldn't work as I expect. -- Rob Allen
