Build ID: 20180322140748

Steps to reproduce:

Looked for a way to access XPCOM's nsIBrowserSearchService in WebEx. The only method that I use of this is .getEngineByAlias(). But I would like to be able to add new search engines as well.


Actual results:

I don't find this simple basic API in WebEx.


Expected results:

It would be nice to at least be able to read the search engines, I can see that adding to them might be a problem....

I left comments on Bug 1352598. I didn't see that it mentioned using aliases at all which is what I need. I definitely need to be able to open the search not just list the name of it as well, although it seems like that is being handled in Bug 1352598.
