Just a request: many people get the standard "RTFM" reply from angry or
overwhelmed sysadmins when they have a specific question to ask. Why not
introduce a rtfm:// URL style where the keywords after the rtfm:// protocol
identifier will be searched using a search engine (user selectable)? Much like
the Google bar that is alread part of the Firefox application.
e.g.
"rtfm://keyword1+keyword2+keyword3" or
"rtfm://keyword1;keyword2;keyword3"
I have no preference for the keyword separating character (space, dot,
semicolon, + sign, whatever).
What do you think?

This is a great suggestion for an extension, but not part of the app core.
