Second Life Link added to Second Life Search Toolbar

The very usefull Facebook application that links Second Life with Facebook has been added as a button on the Second Life Search Toolbar. The application is still under development and the maker Fire Centaur promises more to come soon!
I wonder if it will include one of the excellent search options to search inside SL?

about how to integrate OpenSearch with Your SL Viewer.
Open Search allows you to access multiple search engines in Second Life from the same simple interface. Currently the following search engines are supported:

Metaverse Ink Search supports search for products, designers, notecards, places and land for sale. It lists about 2 million products with images, descriptions, and a link directly to the store. There is also support for scripted vendors. This search engine uses a staff of 14 friendly robots to scan the entire grid twice a week, and has a sophisticated ranking system that is very difficult to fool.
Linden Lab Search "All" search provides access to a static view of information from the SL grid. Highlights include search of places, classifieds, profiles, and the SL wiki.
Google Search ... for the ordinary universe.
