I'm with you. Currently (Trisquel 4.0), Web Browser comes with search support for the following:
GoogleYahooAmazon.comAnswers.comCreative CommonseBayTrisquelWikipedia
Only the ones marked in bold can in any sense be regarded as respecting users' freedom. That's only 3/8 == 37.5% of the supplied search engines, not even including the default engine.

If anything, I'd suggest cutting the number of search engines to the following:
DuckDuckGo (SSL)GoogleCreative CommonsTrisquelWikipedia
3/5 == 60% free, and DDG moving in that direction. Maybe throw in Yahoo if you except anybody to actually use it regularly (I haven't in years, except occasionally on a whim).
