Auto-focus searchbar on economy viewer open (low impact, easy implementation)

90% of the time when I open the economy viewer I want to search for an item. I would like to press "Y" then start typing, but I need to move to the search bar and click it. Right now NOTHING auto-focuses on economy viewer. Typing or moving does nothing, so there's nothing lost to implement this.

Autofocus should be a thing for every modal window in the game. If you open a crafting table window you most probably want to craft something specific, so the search autofocused will help a lot.

I totally agree. This is the most negative user experience in the game for me. I access this menu constantly to check buying and selling prices and locate the player's store on the map. I just don’t understand why the curser does not automatically appear in the 'Filter by name...' field on the Trade menu so that you can begin typing after hitting the 'y' key. I often forget to click the field before typing and nothing happens until I hit another key that is bound to a different menu, like ‘M’, which opens the map. I like using the mouse when moving my character about and interacting with the world, but when it comes to menus, I want to ditch the mouse as much as possible.
