Inital focus in the search box when calling <language>.wikipedia.org (Community Wishlist/W337)

Description

When retrieving <language>.wikipedia.org the focus in the page is not in the search box.

I want to search for something, when I retrieve the homepage of <language>.wikipedia.org, so the focus SHOULD BE IN THE SEARCH BOX.

Solution: Start with the focus in the search box and avoid that mouse click to activate the search box (what 99% of users do first, after they did not click on a specific link but retrieved <language>.wikipedia.org).

Cheers, and keep up the good work,

Hubert
