To my knowledge, ctrl+A is not a shortcut in the node editor by default in Blender. Did you set it yourself or where does it come from?

Can confirm.

Suspicion is also rBa5790b26563c, will check...

I believe +A was meant here, then Search...

I was also checking this. There is a crash (in debug builds at least) when I assign a shortcut to the node search in the menu, and them remove it again.

Yes, I forgot to mention it. SHIFT+A also brings the menu and then serach gives error.
