Comment:

 Welcome to Trac! Thanks for the report and patch.

 This has been discussed before in #29102, after the auto-focus was
 ''purposely'' removed, plus #39528 and #55267.

 While many people want to search immediately by keyword, auto-focus would
 skip several controls (including the Upload Plugin link, about four links
 to browse featured/popular/favorite plugins, and the select element to
 search by author or tag instead of by keyword).

 Besides, if you know the plugins you would search by name, you might
 prefer saving them to Favorites.
