Build Identifier: 

I request approval to remove amazon, dictionary and ebay search plugins from
Firefox pt-BR.

They don't have localized interfaces/services and just bloat the search menu.

Google and Yahoo were localized.

Can you find 3 other plug-ins that can replace Amazon, eBay, and Dictionary.com
(a reference web site)?  Having two options is not what we want.  We'd like to
offer 5-7.

I hope wikipedia is OK as a reference web site. The only free portuguese
dictionary I found uses form method=post (it doesn't work in current search
plugin implementation).

Cool, the dictionary replacement I mentioned now uses method=get.

Adding it and removing wikipedia.

Ben changed the name attribute from Cadê to Yahoo. This patch fixes the URL to
search Yahoo instead Cadê.

patch to yahoo.src

I'd like to know what the changes to the inputs do, can't find that in other
yahoo plugins.

universal.src replaces dictionary.src

either encode this in x-mac-roman, or use a 
sourceTextEncoding="n" with n taken from
http://lxr.mozilla.org/aviarybranch/source/xpfe/components/search/src/nsInterne
tSearchService.cpp#3753
