Well, I think if we talking about Location Bar (text input) it's somehow
obvious you would use keyboard to enter something, so if you already
prepared to enter something from keyboard why use mose to open Location
Bar? It's not comfortable, that's for sure. IMHO its' much faster and
more ergonomic to use keybinding (keybindings are good and you want them
;-)).

Ohh, "go" button shouldn't be at right? I think so becouse it's somehow
natural that I enter some text from left to right, so after some text
input my eyes are naturaly will search for "go" button on right (if I really need
to use mose ofcourse), it will be easier to follow with eyes from left to
right, or maybe not? not sure about that.
