Set focus to first input in search fragment #67

@rouilj

Description

@rouilj

The following patch sets the focus to the first element of the searchFragment (if present).
The user can tab to move the focus to the first item, but in this case setting focus is probably better.
Since the searchFragment is at the top of the page, we don't have issues with scrolling the form into
view and losing context.
