That what was i thought too. :D

But in any case, it does not hurt to have contacted the ubufox people as
well. ;-)

I'm not sure: duckduckgo comes by default as a searchengine option in
firefox? Personally, i deleted yahoo,bing,amazon from that default list
and added: ixquick (https), metager (https), firefox help and leo (a
vocabulary). Mycroft as a source of hundreds of searchengines is useful.

Also, i'm not sure if duckduckgo (when it comes with firefox by default)
is https or not.

Personally, as quoted already before, i think a mini-introduction (under
a link button) on how to add searchengines especially from the point of
view of privacy/security would be smart. Together with mentioning https
everywhere (eff.org). I think once you have installed that, any search
engine would be automatically https, given it exists as such (no need of
special installs).

Cheers.
