How about using this. It would be a lot faster to add providers this way. Will start work on it soon if you agree.

Unfortunately probably won't want to do yaml support.

I like to be able to build the app and ship it as a single binary. With yaml I would have to ship those files as well.
Not all searches will be the same, some might use different query encodings. So far we have been lucky that everyone has used simple query escaping.

I do like the convenience of text editable providers. I might change my mind later. =)

Than add a optional or discussion tag to it or just close it 😉

Going to close for now. It already is pretty easy to add providers, and hoping to add bunch more over the next week or so. Should be rarer that people need new ones. =)
