📄 Description

Cobalt now auto-focuses the url input field on page load (on desktop). This allows for a more seamless experience, as you now only need to press CTRL-V instead of selecting the input field with your mouse.

On mobile devices, however, this behaviour could be jarring; having the keyboard pop up on load can be confusing and cover up the website's contents. This has been prevented.

resolves #546
