following up with 1352598, I wonder if there will be an API to install/uninstall open search from webpage.
Component: General → Search
Product: WebExtensions → Firefox
No, there won't. There is an existing API to allow an extension to install a search engine via the manifest, but we will not be allowing the install/uninstall of engines via webextensions.
