The Firefox keyboard shortcuts summary lists Ctrl+E as a shortcut to take you to the search bar, but it doesn't seem to do anything in Firefox 4

On this page: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Keyboard%20shortcuts#w_search "Ctrl+E" is listed as a shortcut to take you to the search bar, even for Firefox 4. But when I try pressing Ctrl+E, it seems to have no function. Does this shortcut do anything? Is the summary page wrong, or is this a bug?

That page is incorrect for 4.0. That shortcut was used temporarily by Panorama in the 4,0 betas, and after they changed the shortcut for Panorama, {Ctrl + E} was not restored for the Search bar. This extension fixes that oversight.

So is there a bug filed against either the page or the browser for this?
