Frankly, I don't see why both cannot agree. By coming up with an
arrangement for sharing Debian searches and NOT changing $BROWSER
defaults, you are just allowing those hits to be recorder as $BROWSER
(upstream) hits as opposed to Debian hits, and Debian is not
compensated. This doesn't adversely affect upstream unless the
maintainers aggressively alter the default User-Agent or some other
indicator which would deny upstream their rightful due. Would you agree?
Thanks.
