Just like with navigation, let's make it possible for people to use different search engines.

Nominatim, Nominatim (bbox), Photon, Pelias etc

Perhaps they could also be hidden behind advanced settings button for simplicity

This is a very good feature but could scar new users with those many options. We, osm contributors, identify those names and we understand them, but not a newbie (providing a complex website is the current osm issue). It would be interesting to have a description in a help section, pop-up, to better explain the differences.
