Now that you mentioned the web search list, I just remember a request made by another user: In the simple web search list (http://qs0.qsapp.com/plugin-data/web-search-list.php), some of the searches are named with the "Search" first and then the name of the search engine ("Search Gmail"), for some it's the other way around ("Google Search (US)"). He asked to make that consistent. I don't think it really matters for finding the searches, but it seems more correct anyway. :-)
