Yeah, nobody has complained about this is several years, but this
would be good to have indeed. I think the vast majority of users
are satisfied with the current options (DuckDuckGo, Google, and
Bing) though. The problem with adding arbitrary search engines is
that we don't want to expose users to format strings, so we have to
think a bit about how the UI should work. Perhaps we should just
expand the list of search engine options to match what Firefox
offers.
For what it's worth, I'm a *huge* user of arbitrary search engines. In
Firefox and Chrome, I have them saved as keyword searches so I can do
things like
`man gcc`
and
`bz 1296670`
and
`koji sssd`
and those will immediately take me to the appropriate pages on those
sites. That to me is a killer feature that would prevent me from
switching (but don't let that affect the default discussion; I will
still install whichever browser works best for me).
