Instead of hitting `ctrl+l` hit `ctrl+k` (or cmd) and you get a naked search directly to your default search engine.

Search keywords are super useful if one uses more than one search frequently. (I found tabbing to the correct engine in the search bar clumsy)

I have short (mostly two letters, very few with three) search commands for Google, Bing, Amazon, en/de translation search, Duden (german dictionary) Wikipedia in german and english and gaming wikis for example.
