That is "Ctrl/Cmd + L" for location bar, and "Ctrl/Cmd + K" for search bar.
Dunno whether we want this, ni UX

Based on a meeting with Hector, this is no longer needed and can now be done from a WebExtension. Please re-open Hector if I have that wrong.

It is not convention to show shortcuts in the placeholder, I'm not sure what's the right place (maybe the famous about:shortcuts proposal?) but it's unlikely to be the urlbar placeholder.

Additionally, there are multiple shortcuts going to the urlbar, and they have different values, for example when the search bar is not present, the urlbar supports both CTRL+L and CTRL+K with different functionality.
