This is really annoying. Even as I typed the summary which contains a slash it
the cursor jumped to the search box. I love the new find feature in PR1 bu I
dont mind pressing Ctrl-F to get there. The slash shouldn't be able to steal focus. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any input box
2. Press the / key
3. Dammit!

Actual Results:  
The cursor jumped into the search box and fastfind started searching for " key"
on this page.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should not steal focus from the input box when the / key is pressed.
