After opening a new tab or window and you go bookmarks with command+b, there is no shortcut to go back.  With command+y and you go to history, but you cannot go back to bookmarks nor a webpage.  You cannot tab to the url entry field.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open new window or tab
2.command+b
3.
Actual Results:  
no shortcut (or tab jump) to go back to url entry field except for opening a new window or tab

Expected Results:  
Another command+b gets me back to the initial page, or allow tabbing until I get to the url entry field

Firefox allows you to tab from the bookmark sidebar to all the fields.
"Manage bookmarks" opens a new window, so I think Camino is better in this area.
I think command+b sometimes means command+[ (inconsistency)
Cmd-L works fine for me in this case, as it always has, to place the focus in the location bar.

Reporter, does cmd-L work for you?

The inability to tab to the location bar, btw, is its own bug. Bug 198153, among others, deals with our tabbing issues.

Yeah, you can type in a new URL and press return while the bookmark manager/history is visible.
