Find All / Replace All should have hotkeys for focusing search results / continuing search after focus is lost

Often when I am searching through code, I want to go through each search result and focus the script editor for each one (e.g. to make an edit).

This cannot be done using only the keyboard, as there’s no way to re-focus the search results part of the panel (or otherwise continue the search) after you’ve finished with the script editor.

Being able to continue the search without re-focusing the panel would be nice (e.g. by using Ctrl+F3 and Ctrl+Shift+F3?), but I think it would be more useful in general to have a hotkey to focus the panel search results since there’s also no way to go from the text input box to the search results without using the mouse.

I wouldn’t like Tab to be the hotkey for focusing search results since I don’t want to have to spam the key heaps to do something as common as that.
