Description
I've just re-done for 1.2.5 and decided to post a tiny usability proposal for omega/templates/query:
-<body bgcolor="#ffffff"> +<body bgcolor="#ffffff" onload="document.P.P.focus();">

Fixed in trunk r15508. Tested with chromium 6.0.472.63 (which supports the HTML5 autofocus attribute) and iceweasel 3.5.16 (which doesn't).
Also changed on http://xapian.org/ (but only for the search results page - I think it probably doesn't make sense to focus the search box on every page).

Thanks, Olly. Xapian is one of my favourite upstreams, and there are a few hundreds I package. :)

Yes, adding autofocus would be good.
I think it would be better to use the HTML5 autofocus attribute, with a fallback to javascript (and not via onload, as that's annoying if you start to interact with the form before the page has fully loaded):
