In looking into the Yahoo report (bug 983723) it looks like Bing is just plain broken on 27/28 (haven't looked into older bugs). The plugin is set up to only send codes if the engine is default, but even if that's correct it's not working. It's also using the desktop codes, rather than the codes for Firefox for Android. I believe, and I'm waiting for Joanne to confirm, that we should be sending the codes at _least_ for all beta/official searches, and potentially for all channels. The patch should be straightforward once we've decided exactly what it needs to do.

These codes are not branch-specific, and not position-specific. Making use of tablet vs. mobile because those tags are different.

The bing search is no longer present in the default search engines. Logged bug 997179 for this issue. Tested on Nightly 31.0a1 (2014-04-16) using Google Nexus 7 (Android 4.4.2).
