[MlMt] Web search query from MM ignores my Safari settings and uses Google??

Okay, this is a weirdness that I just spotted this morning. I was reading the latest MailMate Digest, selected the word Dovecot and right-clicked then chose 'Search with DuckDuckGo' (my selected search engine in Safari). However, when Safari opened I was perplexed to see a Google results page!

I had to double-check that Safari was still set to use DuckDuckGo, and confirmed that searching from the address bar and Spotlight bar worked as I expected. So this seems to be something that MailMate is doing.

I'm on the latest version 1.14 (5964), and it was working with prior versions. Some kind of regression bug?
