Bug description:
  The search engine is hard coded into the webbroswer-app.

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-
  app/14.04/view/head:/src/app/AddressBar.qml

      function buildSearchUrl(query) {
          var searchUrl = "https://google.com/search?client=ubuntu&q=%1&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8";
          var terms = query.split(/\s/).map(escapeHtmlEntities)
          return searchUrl.arg(terms.join("+"))
      }

  So can we add a way to easily change or customize the search engine?
