I ended up removing all four addons from my system (since they seem to
be unmaintained and/or deprecated); here are the package names:

xul-ext-ubufox - Ubuntu modifications for Firefox
xul-ext-unity - Firefox extension: Unity Integration
xul-ext-webaccounts - Ubuntu Online Accounts extension for firefox
xul-ext-websites-integration - Firefox extension: Website Integration

Title:
  Can't install search engines (Tramples over window.external)

Status in unity-firefox-extension package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The addon "Unity Desktop Integration" replaces windows.external with
  its own object, breaking the ability to install Opensearch plugins
  from JS ( window.external.AddSearchProvider() )

  TESTCASE:
  1) Go to http://mycroftproject.com/dlstats.html
  2) Choose any of the OpenSearch plugins and click on the name

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
  A modal window should pop up asking if the chosen plugin really should be installed

  ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR:
  A modal window pops up stating that the browser does not support OpenSearch plugins
