In Firefox at least you can focus address bar for search with default engine with Ctrl-K or Ctrl-J.

For anyone wondering why there's two shortcuts for the same action:

> If you have enabled Emacs-style text editing shortcuts in GNOME, they will also work in Firefox. When an Emacs text editing shortcut conflicts with the default shortcuts (as occurs with Ctrl+K), the Emacs shortcut will take precedence if focus is inside a text box (which would include the address bar and search bar). In such cases you should use the alternate keyboard shortcut if one is listed below.
