I would tend to agree with the statement of others that this probably
something better suited outside the core of Beagle and in a tool like
deskbar.

One problem with a search like that to a remote host is that you'd be
leaking out all of your search terms to a remote site.  People might
not like that.  On the other hand, if it can do spelling suggestions
it might be a nice way to implement that feature.
