Having buttons for "try this search on [Google] [Yandex]" could be useful data to collect for improving the search results.

Yes, however Google's results would be different for everyone, based on what Google knows about you.

Some sort of a setting for displaying 3-5 frequently used bangs below the search bar would be nice.
