The question is, do we really need this feature ? How many people really use
"I'm feeling Lucky".
Can't Google implement something more 'useful' on the search home
page..thoughts ?

Putting a Referer check on "I'm Feeling Lucky" was suggested back
in/around September 2007, but as it still works from anywhere, you can
see how much Google-oids really take the company's "do not facilitate
the less than desirable" to heart...
