Quick Site Search

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Wikiwand, an extension for Wikipedia, provides a keyboard shortcut (CTRL x2) to quickly activate its search function. I propose a PowerToy that would employ the same function on other websites, such as Bing or YouTube. Since CTRL x2 is used by default for Find My Mouse, we could change the shortcut for this add-on to, say, ALT x2.

Scenario when this would be used?

Some mouse and keyboard users can't move the mouse quickly to get to the search box on a website, and pressing TAB to select each element on a webpage one by one can be a hassle. Quick Site Search would function as if you had a touchscreen.
