[MlMt] Keyboard shortcut/binding to search for string within "Common Headers or Body"?

My understanding is that the very first time it is done, it must be done 
with a mouse, but after that it can always be keyboard only.

Invoke a search, and select "Common Headers or Body" (either with mouse 
or Shift-Tab plus arrow-keys and spacebar).  From the MailMate Menubar 
with your mouse, select

Edit->Find->Use as Default Search.

 From that moment on, every time you invoke a search of all messages, it 
will come up as a search of all messages by Common Headers or Body.

For me, typing
\
brings up a search of all messages by Common Headers or Body.  If fact 
the "is", "is not", "contains" or "does not contain" can also be made 
default in the same way.

A better explanation is located at:

Hoping that I interpreted your question correctly.
