Placing focus on form element

for

We have a search form that is presented as a modal. When the modal opens, focus is placed on the modal container, which in this case is the actual form element. I can't find any clarification as to this being correct or not. It does not seem to be causing any issues, but I feel like focus would be better placed on a non-semantic container. Any comments?
