Though not directly from the UI, there is a way to add custom search
engines to the list: just add the OpenSearch XML description to
~/.local/share/webbrowser-app/searchengines/.

The OpenSearch XML description for ecosia.org is available at
https://www.ecosia.org/opensearch.xml, so all you need to do on your
device/desktop is:

    mkdir -p ~/.local/share/webbrowser-app/searchengines
    wget -O ~/.local/share/webbrowser-app/searchengines/ecosia.xml https://www.ecosia.org/opensearch.xml

Title:
  Additional search engine

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I like that there is a list of search engines.

  It would be good if we could add our own, but failing that I suggest
  adding https://www.ecosia.org/ - although bing based it uses revenue
  to reforest the planet.
