Comment 11 for bug 405350

Is this bug being taken care of? For me it looks and sounds very confusing to have a search bar with the google logo above it and my search-item is not only forwarded to google but others log it as well. That to me sounds rather deceptive since there is no obvious indication that canonical or someone at ubuntu is logging it.

I mean, someone who knows about pages and stuff can probably look at the sourcecode of the page and see that this is not just a normal google search bar but links to
http://www.google.com/cse
but the most people I encounter will not have a clue about that [I had never heard of google-cse before].

So to me this sounds like data-farming with unsuspecting users and that I find shadowing this otherwise wonderful example especially when it comes to user-experience named Ubuntu.

I see that the page for karmic koala
http://start.ubuntu.com/9.10/index.html
is already prepared and does not seem different from the older versions, so I take it that there is no change planned?

When it comes to solutions I do agree with Vincenzo Ciancia (though I could live with the second proposes solution as well).

Best of luck and in any case thank you all for your dedication by a small pebble in the stream :-)
