If there was a way to set the search box to take advantage of this, too, I would love to know about it.

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).
