I wouldn't mind if someone could decide *on their site* that they wanted 
you to search a P2P network.  Maybe like a link to:
p2p://images?"Girl_and_dog.jpg"
or something, and that would open your predefined P2P client and search 
it's "images" section for "Girl_and_dog.jpg", but having Mozilla itself 
search P2P networks is asking for trouble.  What happens when the RIAA 
wants to shut down Mozilla for helping copyright infringements?  That's 
no good.
