The problem for mainstream is that that is work. Not only is it a ton of work (when adding extra queries over time), but it is a question of educating the masses. That's an even bigger hurdle.

I always found myself using site:xxxxxxxxxx on google in the same way bangs work on ddg.

That, and the convenient info boxes for most sites (it even supports arch packages and bulbapedia articles) solve 90% of my queries.
