----------------------------------------

Hi Alex,

Thanks for this patch! I'm wondering -- why keep the choice for a year? I don't really get that. How about we just expose a select list or something and let the user explicitly choose?

Cheers,
Chris

> Add additional search provider (to existed Lucid Find) search-lucene.com.
> Initiated in discussion: http://www.search-lucene.com/m/uTJxE2kcRv1
> Requirements (copied from discussion):
> Jukka Zitting: "Ideally the search box would allow the user to choose which provider
> to use. Something like a cookie that remembers the user's selection
> would be nice. If the user doesn't make an explicit selection of the
> provider, then one should be selected randomly for the first search
> and remembered afterwards for consistency.
> It would be great if the required logic was implemented on the client
> side using javascript, as otherwise we'd need to start messing up with
> CGI scripts, etc."
