Search bar - clear text is not keyboard accessible

Hello!

Just wanted to raise this as the search on https://www.w3.org/ and
https://www.w3.org/WAI/ are not fully keyboard accessible which really
surprised me.

I was hoping to use your site to show my engineers how to implement this
properly but on the main site W3, the tab index is incorrect before and
after searching so when I tab into the field I cannot always type without
clicking into the field? It is different on Chrome and Safari and depending
on first load and then tabbing back and forward.

And on the WAI site, I cannot tab or arrow key to the cross icon to clear
the fields text?
I am using a Mac if that helps at all.

Please let me know if you need any further information or if this has been
raised already!
