Once they figure out how to long press the search button, they'd be given
the option to choose which action to take - voice search or the OP's app -
and can decide for themselves.

The beauty of Android is the user has the ability to replace or augment
nearly all facets of the system with customized apps.

Without knowing what he's got planned, there's certainly a possibility that
the user would want to use his app in this fashion instead.

IMO, it would only really be a bad idea if he were trying to forcibly
replace the default action.
