Title:
  start.ubuntu Google CSE has fewer features

Bug description:
  The ubufox package causes the default browser homepage to be adjusted
  to:

    http://start.ubuntu.com/...

  As of 8.10, this is:

    http://start.ubuntu.com/8.10/index.html

  This page features a Google Custom Search (CSE) search form.  Using
  this CSE form to search the web results in a Google interface with
  fewer features than using Firefox's builtin search-bar or simply
  google.com. For example, the "images" and "maps" features are missing.

  Ideally using http://start.ubuntu.com/... should result in the same
  result as using Firefox's default search.
