Comment:

 See screenshot below for reference. Applies also the Media Library in grid
 mode.

 '''About the filter selects:'''
 see @helen [ticket:30333#comment:5 comment on ticket 30333]:
 > typically, this kind of navigation is disruptive when navigating via
 keyboard. The full page refresh means that focus and place are lost.
 Please notice the change proposed in that ticket was then reverted in
 r31692.

 Also, for reference:
 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/change
 > Different browsers do not always agree whether a change event should be
 fired for certain types of interaction. For example, keyboard navigation
 in `<select>` elements never fires a change event in Gecko until the user
 hits Enter or switches the focus away from the `<select>`

 From an accessibility point of view, these selects shouldn't submit on
 change and they would need a button. Not to mention the different behavior
 in Gecko, Webkit, Trident.

 '''About the search input:'''
 See #31818 and also what was implemented in #26600 using `wp.a11y.speak`
 to at least announce to assistive technologies the search results.
