Thanks for that, I didn't know it! It seems that also F3 works, and in fact CTRL+G is alias of F3, and both work in Firefox as well.

The only issue is that in Firefox, it is only equivalent for the first search; once you close the bottom bar, subsequent F3/CTRL-G just do "find next occurrence" and do not display the bar anymore. Chrome always displays the search input on the other hand.

Edit: since talking shortcuts, in Firefox ' (apostrophe) is like CTRL-F but searches only hyperlinks (and you can cycle through in case of multiple matches with F3/CTRL-G) which is extremely useful for quickly navigating pages via keyboard only.
