If you're looking for suggestions to improve it, I'd suggest you add some favicons for the search (I prefer favicons than text), and the options to display several context options at once, and to hide the other into the scrolling menu. A question: Can I use it with bookmarklet javascript code? I'd like to make a little hack, and to do some actions with the context menu using this extension. Is it possible to mention a javascript code as a link? Or another way to do some actions? If not, it would be great to be able to personalize it with some custom code.

This is a great extension, but it has a long way to go (I think). It would be great if the search options where in the right click context menu (like the FF extension), and a more automatic (or lazy-user friendly :D) way to add engines. I took a while to organize my search bar engines, so it is really a bummer having to do it all over again for the context search extension. Anyways, this is the extension that convinced me to try to migrate to chrome, I'm looking foward to future updates.

It's such a small arrow, yet if you make it bigger it will be annoying. I tried to modify it so it opens/closes when I mouseover/out the little arrow, and it's sooo much better. But I couldn;t get it to work completly right (hectic menu behaviour, etc) so, maybe you could help? Do you think you could have a little mouseoverVersion hosted somewhere?

(which is quite ridiculous, by the way) Two questions though: 1. isn't it possible for your extension to use the search engines we already saved in Chrome? It may be a silly question, since you have certainly thought of it already. But, just in case... and 2. it would be nice if the box opened automatically as soon as the user selects some text! This is how AutoContext add-on for Firefox works. It saves me an extra click. This behaviour could be optional of course, so that every user may decide if they want it (I would) Thank you!

One suggestion for you - The size of arrow marked button (which pops out after selecting the text) is somewhat smaller than it should be.It is somewhat irritating. One really have to be careful while navigating to that arrow. So it would be of greater if you increase the size of that button by some amount.It would make life better for one while using it. :D Hope to see more from you. Keep Rocking \m/ Hey,

Can you please make it so that rarely used search engines can be "hidden" under a sub-category, like in IE8's Accelerators? Suggestion: Add an option to the Options page to list search engines based on alphabet, frequent usage. Thanks!!! This is awesome!
