Yes, I want to be able to type, no matter where, but the search result should get the focus in my opinion. We don't want to lose that functionality, it's about knowing what the currently most relevant item is, just like a sighted user would see the top list item. Then if the arrow keys for example work to go to the next search result, just like you'd glance down, then that's perfect.
