Linkable Search URL

[lea_hazel]

Title:
Linkable Search URL

Area:
Search page

Summary:
Add inline arguments for the search page to allow linkable search results.

Description:
The search page allows an inline argument for a journal search, but not for the search term itself. Since search terms are usually pretty short, using inline URL arguments would allow users to link to search results, like they would link to the results of a google search:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&site=&q=dreamwidth&btnG=Search

http://www.dreamwidth.org/search?q=google

This can be useful for common searches. It will also allow users of Firefox to create a shortcut for a DW search.
