[Enhancement] Add support to fetch search results from search engines like youtube, google #413
Description
Which feature do you want to improve?
The search using search engines feature. Specifically when a search engine keyword is already mentioned like ggl or yt.
Describe the enhancement you'd like
While searching the specific search engine, few supported search engines could render the search results too. We can do this for websites with exposed public api.
It's similar to implementation done in this repo: (And those with API requirement like youtube can have the option to add API_KEY to get the live results) https://github.com/bharath6115/BrowserConnect_PowerToysRun/tree/main/Community.PowerToys.Run.Plugin.BrowserConnect/Providers
Why would this improvement be useful?
It makes the search more robust. Saves time by opening the result rather than needing to manually navigate to it. Makes the app more complete - it renders the data without having to step out of the app.

Thanks for the detailed suggestion and the reference repo. I've thought about it, and I'm not going to implement this for now.
gglcouldn't show inline results without scraping. Scraping breaks often and goes against their terms.The search suggestions already cover part of this, and opening the engine directly is still just one tap. I appreciate the idea though, and I may come back to it if a simpler approach shows up.
