Bug#632698: iceweasel has configuration data in /usr/share that should be in /etc (and not /etc override)

Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.5.19-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Violates the FHS
/usr/share/iceweasel/searchplugins has the default search engines for the search box in the upper right of the browser windows. Unfortunately there is no merging with /etc like with preferences that would allow a site administrator to add a new default search plugin without putting the plugin xml in /usr/share/iceweasel/searchplugins. That means there is configuration data in /usr/share instead of /etc which is a violation of the FHS and therefore Debian Policy.
Except for the the fact that it's a violation of policy it's not a critical issue (i.e. I won't get cranky if you determine that I'm wrong about the policy).
