Firefox – Change the search engine used by about:home in Firefox

firefoxsearch-engines

Firefox's default home or start page provides a search engine with some snippets below it. Is there any way to customize the search engine used through about:config or some other configuration file?

localStorage["search-engine"] sometimes gets reset, possibly after an update. I would like to avoid creating a Greasemonkey script that scripts on about:home. If an extension exist to fulfil the task, I'd be happy too.

I'm using Firefox from Kubuntu 11.04 if that matters.
