Markus, please understand my point. I'm not payed by anyone working on rekonq. 
So, I wanna best for it. And best is (actually) Google. 
Moreover, reading ecosia's homepage I read the following: "Ecosia is an 
ecologic search engine sustained by Yahoo, Bing & WWF" that sounds like "We 
(Yahoo & Bing) are disposed to sponsor also WWF and ecology to win the search 
engine battle".

That said, if the mayor of us are ok with another choice for the default 
search engine (to use, in the second case, just when user selects "none" 
search engine).

Last (but not least), to use Ecosia, it has to be added to ikws desktop files 
in kdebase_runtime.
