x/pkgsite: `/` keyboard shortcut does not work on Firefox

[ian-h-chamberlain]

Seems likely related to #41093.

What is the URL of the page with the issue?

From the above linked issue: https://pkg.go.dev/k8s.io/client-go/kubernetes

What is your user agent?

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:101.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/101.0

Screenshot

What did you do?

Press / key. I also tried setting accessibility.typeaheadfind.manual to false under the Firefox about:config page, in case it was interfering with the keyboard shortcut implementation. Is there another workaround that might enable the / keyboard shortcut functionality?

What did you expect to see?

Search box highlighted as described in the ? keyboard shortcut modal (quickly "Search packages or symbols")

Other websites (e.g. https://github.com or https://go-review.googlesource.com) seem to support their own search bar (without interference from the Firefox-native "quick find"), but pkg.go.dev does not appear to support this.

What did you see instead?

When accessibility.typeaheadfind.manual is set to true, Firefox opens its "quick find" box:

When it is set to false, nothing happens when I type the / key.

Since I haven't seen a peep from anyone else about this, I guess I'll raise my hand and say I'm affected by this too. Quite annoying.

Ditto, very annoying. If the searchbar could be set to "float" at the top of the screen when scrolling that would at least be a mild workaround. Right now if I want to jump the page to a new package I have to scroll back to the very top to find the search bar to click on.
