 I have a request from Startpage.com/ixquick to remove themselves from the
 local search bar in the "about:tor" page. They have concerns about
 handling the traffic load and time to scale their infrastructure up to
 meet the expect demand.

 While discussions continue, we need to find a replacement search engine by
 default.
