So if Google enables forward secrecy for Google searches, would that mean every single Google search would be encrypted with a new key, or only the "open session"? Would encrypting every search be possible with perfect forward secrecy [1]? And if so, can't we get that for TLS 1.3, too?

Well Google is also a company that stores full history of everything and hands over stuff to the NSA, so in the bigger picture the point is moot?
