Right now, for the default search providers, the descriptions in the add-ons manager are: Google Search Yahoo Search Amazon.com Search Realtime Twitter Search Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia which aren't very descriptive of what these things which we're portraying as add-ons actually _add_ to the browser. I'd suggest that we change them to: Search button for Google Search button for Yahoo Search button for Amazon.com Search button for Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Search button for Twitter Future search providers that users add will just use the opensearch plugins' own description fields, but, by the point a user has added one, we should be over the hump of them understanding what's going on.
I'm not a fan of "Search button ..."
and we already show "Search" on the right side of the item. I really think we should not change these strings
