I tried out epiphany now, and I think I got misunderstood: Epiphany has
"smart bookmarks" which popup when typing arbitrary text in the
adressbar. This is just like deskbar which offers me to do a beagle
search or a web search or what ever.

Both do so *after* I typed the query in and i still have to choose the
right one. But I know *before* what engine I want to use and want to
type:

b thesis<CR>
g deskbar<CR>
z gnome<CR>

(for b=beagle, g=google, z=amazon)

rather than 

thesis<WAIT><DN><DN><DN><DN><CR> 

( <DN> = Arrow down )

Even clearer: I want to assign a keyword (g,b,z) to searchengines, and
omit any "smartness" (sometimes ppl are still smarter than prgrams ;-) )

Sebastian.
