Steps to reproduce:

Typed a search query into the address/search bar


Actual results:

Got a prompt to search Bing for the term.


Expected results:

Should be prompted to search with the same providers as Firefox for Android: Amazon, Google, Twitter, and Wikipedia.  They are listed in https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/locales/en-US/searchplugins/list.txt
Note that the Amazon provider should be updated from m.amazon.com to www.amazon.com.  This is filed separately as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=891879

It's my understanding that search deals are different on Firefox OS than Firefox for Android?

In practice this may be a duplicate of bug 833149 or bug 883002.
