even with mnemonics i could not access the dropdown without a mouse. vinod, please use summaries so that one understands what this is about. you're takling about the search here, so name it. thanks in advance. :-)
It doesn't look like there's an easy way to give each item in search a unique mnemonic, as they are dynamically added and removed, however, they could all be given the same mnemonic and the user can select by repeating the shortcut (The dropdowns at the top do work with mnemonics, if that's what you meant, by pressing the mnemonic to select the dropdown box, then space to activate it)
