Details

When using a screenreader one can navigate the page via landmarks http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/roles#landmark_roles and to make it a bit easier for those users I would recommend that only the search in the header has role="search" That would mean that we should remove role="search" on the search-form inside of the #content element on the start and searchpage.
