Trying to stay away from the bikeshed, but: This function isn't for 
searching forums in particular, it's for searching the Web-based help 
for the distribution (help.ubuntu.com for Ubuntu, novell.com/support 
for Sled, fedora.redhat.com/docs for Fedora, and so on). So including 
"forums" in the URL is misleading.

The only reason I chose gnomesupport.org/forums as a default was 
because there didn't seem to be anything more relevant for Gnome in 
general. (Not that there should be, but I guess some distributors won't 
get around to customizing the function for their own help resources.)

Thanks for your work on this.

Cheers
