[Idea]: Group search results by type #27

Description

@brandon-huber-cls

Problem or limitation

It's hard to quickly find the bookmark I'm looking for, since the tabs and history results are mixed in with the bookmark results. I primarily use this extension for bookmark search. Only occasionally do I search for tabs or history.

Desired outcome

I can limit my search to bookmarks most of the time.

Proposed approach

I would like to have the search results grouped by type (bookmark, tab, history) with a hotkey to jump between the groups (e.g., Alt + Up/Down), so that it's easy to get to the result I'm looking for, similar to how the command palette in the Vivaldi browser works.

Perhaps the priority order of the result types could be customized in Settings.

Scope and non-goals

  • Grouping results by type
  • Setting to control order of groups

Would this require new browser permissions?

No

Would you be willing to contribute this change?

No
