[qutebrowser] sorting bookmarks by recency

    Thanks to you both for your replies.

    Hey, as long as we're talking about dreamy enhancement requests, here's one
that I'm sure would be very hard to implement, but which I think would be a
killer feature. I'd love a way to search for text within "all pages that I've
bookmarked." (So not just the title of the pages, but their text.)

    Don't know if it'd be easier to snapshot and store the text of every page
as it's bookmarked, or to re-fetch the pages afresh whenever the user does the
aforementioned kind of search. There are pros and cons to each, but either one
would be a godsend.
