love the idea of reducing steps to do simple things !!! especially on
mobile, very useful.
isn't there a web API available to enable this? (expand to not only
search but almost any kind of action)
I can envision that an app would like to use the selected text to engage
an action ("count number of letters", "search lyrics"...).

That is great for now. It may make sense to expand it later to a
different choice, though. The use case for text highlight might skew
towards something like Wikipedia or word definition rather than just
web search (though some search engines provide this functionality inline).

We already have one setting, so I'd assume it's "good enough"
to use
this instead of a hardcoded string and discuss another
settings item at
a later step.
I added a new `search` web activity in apps/search (bug 1206572
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1206572>), so the
`search` action will reuse default search option. User could
change the default search provider via tap top left search bar or
change it in settings/search panel.
