Currently, to test changes to a search engine, we have to either:
- Poke preferences to get the right locale & region (for which I myself can never remember which ones).
- Poke list.json to add an engine to the locale.
With the modernisation, all the configuration will be on the server, although we'll still have the engine definitions locally.
Ideally we should be able to:
- Switch between the remote settings staging and production servers (preview & non-preview modes as well).
- Set a locale and region, and see the effects, test the engines.
- Not need to restart Firefox.
RemoteSettings have their own add-on for changing between production/staging settings.
I'm wondering if we could either extend that, or make a similar clone, that would allow us to additionally set the locale/region and automatically reset the search cache and reinit the search service.
