 Browse requires you to "return home" or type in the search site's URL
 before starting a new web search.  It would be nicer if Browse provided an
 experience akin to the Chrome browsers Omnibox (http://dev.chromium.org
 /user-experience/omnibox ).  A "?" bookmark keyword that goes to the
 default search engine might be a quick workaround
 (http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Bookmark_Keywords ).
