When using the Search Sidebar, a colon (:) inside the search is escaped to %3A
which make pressing the "Search" button to perform another search. In Mozilla
1.5 and below the colons were not escaped, and pressing the "Search" button gave
exactly the same results.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using the Siderbar, search (using Google) for "site:mozilla.org search"
2. The Search Sidebar will say: "site%3Amozilla.org search"
3. Click the Siderbar's "Search" button
4. The found results will differ from step 1

Actual Results:  
A different search is performed

Expected Results:  
The same search should be performed
I just upgraded to Mozilla 1.7 (Linux version). This problem is still there! Can
someone please test this so that the status can be set to NEW?
