This happens in the latest Aurora 32, but not the latest beta 31: 1) Enter a number in the urlbar. 2) Click any of the search engines from the suggestion list. 3) The query on the resulting search page is a Google search URL for the term (whether searching with a Google engine or not), rather than the term itself ("https://www.google.com/search?q=123&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&a1=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial") I noticed this when attempting to search for a USPS tracking number.
Nice catch.

Re-summarizing. So, if you search up '123', no matter the engine you use you'll see a search conducted on the actual entire Google search URL.

We should avoid converting these searches if the user clicked a search engine.
