This is probably going to be a WONTFIX. We don't add just any search engine to
this page...

This is not just ANY additional search engine - it is the only metasearch engine 
on this page. I added Metacrawler because I think if there is at least on 
metasearch engine, the mix of the engines listed on this page is more balanced. 
Metasearch is a big part of the search technologies...
