And ? I don't see the relation ?

Yes we could add the embedded google searchbar, it would still use the
same google site: feature.

I am talking about the way the pages are being indexed.
You can tell the google robot to skip some pages (like kris maglione
suggests for the diffs) or to not index files contained in a given
folder, for instance.
But you cannot do the opposite: force it to index specific pages of a website.

That's the point I was talking about: your own embedded search engine
indexes what you tell him to.
