I'm not sure. The plugin basically generates a table of keywords that DuckDuckGo uses to generate its results, but I don't know how many kinds of queries will trigger it. So, it may be possible to restrict searches with the right syntax, but if so I don't know it.

It is somewhat flexible: I see you can search for "30072.dat" or "ldraw 30072" to get the same results. A search for a recognized category such as "ldraw bricks" presents a lists of matches, which may hint how to search only e.g. technic figure parts.

I did not have the opportunity to test search with the plugin when I wrote it - I was just following the output format of another example plugin. Now it is easier to see how the output is used and this may suggest ways to make it better in the future.

Anyway, glad you like it.
