in 10.2 Apple removed the UI in Internet system prefs where the user can change
her/his default search page. the default search page in jaguar is now hidden and
set to http://www.excite.com/apple/

i think we should add pref UI (hopefully straighforward and simple in design) to
chimera so that the user can change the default Search page.

Fix checked in. This behaves like the home page pref, in that it can be set to
get the pref from the OS (Internet control panel), or a user pref. If no user
pref exists, it uses the setting in WebsiteDefaults.strings.
