NetBox version

v4.0.8

Feature type

New functionality

Triage priority

This is a very minor change

Proposed functionality

Pressing the slash / key from any webpage should move the cursor to the global search box, unless another text field already has focus. This is a common convention across many web services including Gmail and GitHub.

Use case

Nine times out of 10, the first thing I do when opening Netbox is click on global search. I've arrived the page using the keyboard (typing the URL), so it's un-ergonomic to move to the mouse for one click and then move back to the keyboard to type.

Database changes
