I know.  I used to use that, but I switched from my local smart bookmark
system to a more online, centralized and community managed one, such as
YubNub[1].  And up until Galeon 2.0.5, that use to work just fine.
Consider the search keyword URL to be a "default" smart bookmark.  With
the previous Gecko transition (a few years ago?) this got broken, and
fixed.  And now it broke again.  So, for the moment, I stopped updating
after 2.0.4.  I could make a smart bookmark for YubNub, but that would
defeat the purpose.

Regards,
Paul
