Comment:

 With commit [https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-messenger-
 build.git/commit/?id=7cd77ca26c2ee1f0565382a6e9c2a66d04caf4ec 7cd77ca26],
 we disable the 'Search with...' context menu that is used to query the
 default search engine (Google), and we also remove the search engine
 configuration from the preferences menu. (We may revisit this later when
 we implement launching Tor Browser from Tor Messenger.)
