is there any FF own controls or external plugin which would allow me *full*, comfortable (via dialog panels), interactive control of Search Bar providers like, say, Opera browser does (and always did)?

for some reasons, the current FF UI only allows me to edit a 'keyword', or I am missing something?

hello, yes, it does. thank you!

it has an Engine Properties dialog -- every parameter (URI, method etc) can be modified.

(I only wish it were resizable -- some params just don't fit into width -- have to scroll horiz.)

thanks once again!
