User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.2.12) Gecko/20101027 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.12

I use e.g. "g SEARCH TERM" from the location bar to run search for a term. g is bound to the bookmark:
http://www.google.at/search?hl=de&source=hp&q=%s&meta=&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=

%s is replaced with the term.

Spaces are properly encoded in the search term but "+" is passed as is. But "+" in a url usually denotes a space. "g c++" thus results in a search for "g c  ".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the google page
2. Choose "Define a keyword for that search" from the popup menu; choose e.g. "g" as keyword
3. type "g c++"
Actual Results:  
Google searches for "c  "

Expected Results:  
The "+" characters should be escaped in the url and google should search for c++.
