Google search box within Natural listings..

So, the natural listings in google have another google search box now, when you search for brand term. A quick search for Wikipedia will show the search box appearing. However this search box only appears when the site is ranking first (and possibly only for brand); is this a sitemap option..?

It is currently running for Wikipedia, John Lewis, Amazon and probably hundreds more.

Try it for yourself; google search for wikipedia.

Edit- UponĀ  further examination, it is only appearing for brand term searches for major retailer & large companies (microsoft, tesco.. etc)
