Btw this isn't new.. This has been going on for a long time.. I don't think ms in this case stands for Microsoft..

You are right! :confused:!!
I just had a look at
/usr/share/applications/web-search-google.desktop
and there is written explicitly:
X-Web-Search-Url=http://www.google.com/m/search?client=ms-nokia-meego

So what does ms stand for?
Is it there since PR1.1 or just with PR1.3?
Now I am even more curious...
