Firefox: Adding smart keyword searches for specific websites

Firefox offers the functionality to allow users to utilize web site search functions without having to browse that website, clicking the search field, and then entering the term to search for. Instead, you can use the address bar to enter a keyword and then the search term, and you will be taken to the results directly.
