No, even though as with the previous search plugin solution, we have the 
Google search plugin set as the default, but you can easily set a 
different one in the preferences, just like before - just that the 
selection of other search providers you can install is now much larger 
as we support the same OpenSearch standard as other browsers.



May everything associated with Google be stripped from
SM 2.1 without ill-effect?


Just like with previous versions and just like with Firefox, you can 
surely do this. Mozilla would never make any of its products dependent 
on a single provide in a way that the user can't change it.

Please bottom post, thanks.

Nothing in SM that I see that is Google-Dependent

What is it that you want to strip regarding "Google"?
