I was about to close this bug, because it generated no interest since full-text
searching was fixed, but today i noticed something that made me think that
maybe it should be fixed. The current mobile Wikipedia is really only for
Wikipedia. I tried using Wiktionary today from my phone, and i couldn't run a
search - i can write the word in the search box, but my phone doesn't have a
way to send an Enter-like event.

This is true for my Samsung Monte, for Symbian-based Nokia phones and maybe for
many others. On the iPhone the SimpleSeach drop-down works, although not
without issues.

On the Mobile Wikipedia this is solved by putting near the input box a button
that actually runs the search and can be pressed by the Symbian "mouse"-like
pointer, by the Samsung touchscreen or by whatever there is in the other
phones. Until there's a new mobile WikiMedia app, this button should be added
to Wikimedia projects. Marking this as High priority - it's nearly impossible
to search non-Wikipedia projects on many mobile devices until it's solved.
