When right clicking on a sponsored tile and bringing up the context menu, one of the options is to Search your preferred search provider for the title of the tile (e.g. Search Google for "Amazon Sponsored") That feels a bit odd. Shouldn't that just switch to doing a search in Amazon or something?

The context menu could show "Search COMPANY_NAME" if we have a search engine available for the sponsored tile, which could either enable the urlbar to using the one-off button for that engine or as an easier solution, go to the search page for that company (though at that point, it's arguable whether or not the context menu item should even exist since it's doing the same thing as the selecting the tile).
Switching to enhancement since it's user facing improvement and the issue that all tiles have "sponsored" appended to the search is capture in Bug 1722172. The fact that it is using the default search engine is consistent with the tiles, so I don't think it is a bug.
