Comment:

 I've fixed the "Search web" context menu for now in Web+ revision 567, but
 like the URL bar search we still need proper search engine management and
 OpenSearch.org support, instead of hard-coding Google.

 As for the shortcut, I really don't know if it is needed with the URL bar
 search feature. I know that in Firefox with it's search field and Chrome
 with it's URL bar search I rarely open google.com directly. In fact until
 now in Web+ I did not even use the feature where you can have new tabs go
 to the search site. I might even remove that at some point.

 I'll leave this ticket open for now to wait for your comments Humdinger.
 Also I've been working on some of your tickets at http://webpositive
 .haiku-os.org (copied from mmlr's server.) Have you been getting email
 notifications?
