Browser enhancement idea

[dsrtao]

Right click. "Bookmark this page".

Do not ask me what to call it.
Do not ask me where to put it.
Do not put it in a hierarchy.

Do:
get full text off of the page and put them in a local index.

When I start typing in the Awesome Bar or the Bookmark searcher or whatever it is,
make suggestions based on what I'm typing versus that index.

Has anyone implemented this for Firefox? (Or anything else?)

Interesting idea. One wrinkle: what constitutes the "text" of the page? Nowadays everything has so much marginalia it might swamp the interesting content. Maybe it'd let me swipe over the area/div-tag that I found interesting.

I do want the "Search my history's content" feature, however. That'd save me a lot of time every so often. And for text, disk space is wicked cheap.

Amazon does the "unusual or unique phrases found in this book" thing. Some amount of that kind of analysis might be helpful.

I'm very good at remembering enough relevant trivia to make googling work. I think it could be even faster if Google knew my complete browser history, but I don't want them to have that, so I figured this might be reasonably implementable.
