For curious users, they may perform searches to learn about sites they discover through Lightbeam. Therefore, it may be useful to have an button that, on clicking, opens a new tab and automatically searches about a website selected within Lightbeam.

Ideally, Lightbeam would know from Firefox settings the default search engine choice and would also allow selection from the search engines listed in the Firefox settings also. It could search either 'trackingthirdparty.com' or 'trackingthirdparty' (maybe you could select but the .com version is default).

I wonder whether we could link to the pages that Ghostery has compiled on known trackers (e.g. the one for Google Analytics).

That would work very well, though you'd possibly need to default to search engines if Ghostery doesn't have infomation on a particular site.
