Feature request: keyboard shortcut for searching highlighting text in default search engine

What I would like is to have a keyboard shortcut when I highlight text to search the text in the default search engine. The next fastest option is to right click (after highlighting) and press S, or click 'Search DuckDuckGo for "selected text"'.

Hi,

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.

If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Fair enough. I actually went to do that initially, as I have done for previous feedback, but thought it would be better to leave public feedback where I can get a response. But I'll do that as well now.
