Replying to go.sugimoto@…:
This is very interesting. Thank your very much for the info.
But, I don't know if Google opens up this possibility to all websites. (..)
I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the info. The effort is fairly limited so we could still give it a try, and maybe their policy changes in the future and also other search engines or other services might pick up on this information. Keeping it at a low priority though...

This is very interesting. Thank your very much for the info.
But, I don't know if Google opens up this possibility to all websites. It seems, at least in the beginning, only big websites (eg millions visits per month) are qualified by Google. If it is the case, we have absolutely no chance. We have only 7494 visits for a year (2014-2015). Nothing prevents us to try, but it is wise not to expect a lot from this at this stage.
For instance, see an article about it: https://moz.com/blog/sitelinks-searchbox-study
