1) I can see how this would be useful if you switch browsers a lot.
2) I can see how "y! <query>" is considerably shorter than typing "yahoo.com <tab> <query>".
I tend to use chrome most of the time and the extra typing doesn't really bother me. Especially since I really don't get much use out of this feature in chrome. I honestly use google 95%+ of the time. But I can see how your use case can differ.
I just feel that people sell this as a revolutionary killer feature when it really seems like a minor refinement of something people could do already.
