[Mycroft] Re: MozillaZine Search Plugin Icon

[Alan Bramley]

I've run into this sort of problem as well. I think if you have two or 
more different plugins which use the same base URL in the 'Action' then 
it will use icon for the plugin nearest the top of the alphabetically 
sorted list. Interestingly, if you select both plugins for a 
multi-engine search then it picks the correct icon in the 'chrome' display.

I'm not aware of any work-around for this, I just live with it. Sites 
using "Atom Search" have the same problem.
