Plugincheck: search query for unknown plugin should be localizable :

When clicking on the "Research" blue button for an unknown plugin, users are taken to google with a search query that is always in English ("current version plugin X").

The search query string should be localizable, as it was in the previous version of plugincheck.

Problem reported here but not fixed : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=898766

hello ayman, thanks for bringing it up, but the bug report is already the right location where this problem should be handled. here on the support forum we're primarily focused on providing solutions to users for "solvable" issues - if it is a genuine bug it's better off at bugzilla, since there it will get the attention of developers.

please understand that except for security critical patches it may take a while for a fix to land due to the available ressoruces and the priorization of different bugs. the bug in question is already recognized as valid and will take its course...
