Special:SimpleQuery should offer JavaScript UI for inserting search values. The entity selector for choosing an entity and the jQuery.valueview for entering the value.
Could also use jQuery.wikibase.snakview for both combined if the snak type selector gets hidden in addition.

Change 89117 had a related patch set (by Daniel Werner) published:
(bug 55593) use jQuery.wikibase.snakview on Special:SimpleQuery
This needs a rebase on top of the fetchedEntityStore refactoring in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/107554/
As far as I know, JS widgets still need quite a bit of refactoring before they can be used outside an EntityView page.
To avoid blocking on that refactoring, I suggest to just provide a plain text input field, and use server side value parsers to parse the strings into data values.
We would still want/need an EntitySelector widget for picking the property, but that should work fine without the EntityView infrastructure already.
