I think that browser's bookmarks are much more advanced, sophisticated and native;
i.e. I'd rather have in my browser a bookmark to down HA VMs search, instead of:
- opening the application
- open the bookmarks tab
- searching the bookmark
* and that's after I know how to use it (I've read the manual[??]/wasted time in playing with it), and remember how to use it from time to time.
