I wouldn't put the descriptor at /roller-services/opensearch. That
doesn't make much sense to me because it's not really a webservice and
it contextually applies to a weblog. Why not just put the url at
/<weblog-handle>/opensearch? This is what we do with rsd files, which
are effectively the exact same thing.
Everything else sounds good. One other thing to make sure of is that
if search is disabled that these features should all return a 404 or
some other kind of indication that they aren't a supported operation.
But what about the site-wide search case where the main blog is not an
aggregated blog?
I suppose that one could go either way, but if there is no "aggregated"
blog then is it really appropriate to offer a site-wide search?

Roller provides a simple search interface in the form of a search URI
that returns search results in HTML format and URIs that can return
search results in Atom format. By adding support for OpenSearch, we
can make it possible for other applications to discover and use
Roller's search services in a programmatic fashion.
Here's the full proposal:

It's a simple affair and I plan to commit these changes in the next
couple of hours. Feedback is more than welcome before and after
commit.
