Description

An ability to choose in what tab you do the search request. It should be an easy adjunction to the main URL.

for the 'All' tab it's empty.
for the 'News' tab: &tbm=nws
for the 'Videos' tab: &tbm=vid
for the 'Shop' tab: &tbm=shop (though I don't think the links path is the same for this one, might not work)

Research direction

Begin at the proposed google.searchTab('...') entry point and inspect how the main Google search URL is built. Verify the empty suffix for All and the listed tbm values for News, Videos, and Shop; completion means each tab produces the intended search URL, with Shop behavior confirmed.
