Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
The search keywords set in "Manage Search Engines..." are reset to nothing whenever there is an update to the Ubuntu Firefox package.
To reproduce:
1. Click on the search drop-down list at the right side of the main toolbar and select "Manage Search Engines..."
2. Set one of the keywords, for instance you might set google to 'g'
3. Wait for an automatic update to clobber your settings
