Answering my own qeury...

Google does not care whether the site-specific name or the query tem is listed first. So the actually OSXFAQ search item for Searchling would be:

<!-- //////////////////// OSXFAQ //////////////////// -->
<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>OSXFAQ</string>
<key>types</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>type</key>
<string>MacOS X</string>
<key>url</key> <string>http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;lr=&amp;ie=ISO-8859-1&amp;as_qdr=all&amp;q=site%3Aosxfaq.com+</string>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>

Note the use of the comments in XML - helps a lot with my sites.xml list getting so long.

What about creating dividers in the Searchling menus? I tried several failed attempts at creating empty <dict> entities for example with the name of "----------" or similar - but Searchling didn't like it - went all wonky and display several G icons across the menu bar. With long lists - some pseudo-menu item seperators would be nice.

A key for a the space would be the right way to go. And really, this needs an editor. Perhaps I'll look into creating an interface for editing the XML list...
