This allows us to replace the tedious 'selectSearch google "firefox"; selectSearch yahoo "firefox"...' with shorter 'selectSearch google' and so on. One less argument.

As for the changes to RunOrRaise, firefox 3 actually works without 
resorting to classname (the pid thing works). I was just wary about 
changing it since firefox 3's not out yet, and that doesn't work with 
older firefoxes
