Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:7 gk]:
 > Hm, I am not sure anymore why I removed the `html` part from DDG in
 #19898, maybe mcs/brade have some memory about that?

 We don't remember, but the change might have been made to get more DDG
 features such as being able to filter to show images or by timeframe.

 > But my patch is adding it back again as it solves this bug (see
 `bug_27507`
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/torbutton.git/commit/?h=bug_27507&id=ea6f3ec3ec41a953827e103a0f68f3d2d4fc237a)
 in my public Torbutton repo). Moreover, it solves the issue that a user on
 #tor had today, that just hitting the arrow in the search bar without
 entering any search term would get a white DDG page (which is arguably a
 DDG bug).

 Your patch looks fine, but I wonder if we should ask DDG to fix their bug
 instead.
