URL rewrite for Safari is way too aggressive at re-writing. Pre-req for this example: Safari's default search engine is Google. Example: http://fake.google.com/search?q=123, http://docs.google.com/search?q=123 will all navigate user to https://google.com/search?q=123 (and show 123 in the url bar) This rewrite will navigate any of Google's sub domain. It is very often not appropriate outside google.com or www.google.com. A real example: https://support.google.com/search?q=123 will bring you to different page on Chrome (correct) vs Safari (incorrect). Also reproduced on bing.com

PS: This only happen when the domain is the default search engine of Safari.

Safari uses WebKit, but Safari’s special handling of search provider URLs is not part of WebKit. The best way to report issues with Safari is to use Apple’s bug reporting website at <https://bugreport.apple.com/>.

Marking as invalid per the above comment, as we can’t track issues outside WebKit in WebKit Bugzilla.
