add browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh
and set the value to true
, after that you should see Add button in about:preferences#search
Edit: nvm, there doesn’t seem to be field for suggestions…
Edit2: There’s also https://mycroftproject.com/, where you can try to find the search engine you want.

Out of all of them Iceraven has been my favorite simply because of its support for desktop extensions.
You can use more extensions on other ones as well:
Works on Firefox Beta, Firefox Nightly, Fennec and Mull.
Nope, doesn’t seem to be available at least for the moment
