Thanks for mentioning bangs! I'm having the same issue as in the parent comment and didn't realize you could use bangs to set the location.

Still not an ideal solution for me, because it requires me to plan ahead when typing the query (or rewriting it later, which is slower).

Bangs can go anywhere in the search term, and if you press "!" on the search results page it focuses the search bar and types it there.
