Doesn't the hotkey for this field working for you? Here, using Kontact 
in Portuguese, the search field's label is "Procurar", with an 
underlined "o". So, ALT+O put the focus in this field.

CTRL+TAB, SHIFT+CTRL+TAB

SHIFT+TAB

It goes to the details for the selected event, then goes to the buttons 
of the panel where your calendar resources are shown, then it goes to 
the resources list, then to the events area, then to the status bar and 
after that it goes again to the month/year back/forward buttons. The 
only place where there's no visual indication of where is the focus is 
on the events panel. At the other places there are indications, 
although some are hard to note.

Here I can't help you. Don't know if this is possible without using the 
mouse.
