Equivalent for chrome history? #1

This is just an idea, but how hard would it be to create an equivalent of this for chrome history?

I'm not a huge fan of the omni-completion in chrome address bar. It'll be nice if we had a way to do ,h file-finder and it goes through the history and finds the zazu-file-finder repo.

This is just a way for me to get to repos and pages that I have seen before but forgot to bookmark.

The problem with history is that it's a sqlite database and Chrome has lock on it often. When I made a FireFox searcher it basically copied the sqlite file every x minutes so it could own the lock, which I'm not opposed to doing in this case. I've not looked at it, but there is a History file in the same directory as the Bookmark file, if you want to take a gander.
