For the menu items that bring up a search box, can the cursor focus be auto-positioned into the search field when the menu search is selected?

This includes at least
- Search on the main white-on-blue menu bar
- Search this forum
- Search this thread

For each of these, I have to click the menu item to invoke the search field, then click a second time inside the search field. It would be much more user friendly to let the user start typing the search terms after the first click.
