The above requires 1.46.102 or higher for 1.46.x verification 👍

NOTE: I spun the original issue here off into #26676, as search auto-discovery was broken even for planet.mozilla.org, with which it now works 👍 That issue can cover the multiple-feed sources scenario which seems to be why it's broken for pravda.com.ua.
