Save searches #3

Searches should be saveable and re-loadable.

Is there a cry out for this? I'm not sure that it'd be helpful for me.

We've actually had quite a few requests for this in our Cantus Ultimus web application. People want to be able to 'pick up where they left off', so saving the state of their interface and any searches they had done so they can re-load it later seems to be a useful feature.

I was thinking of this in the context of a ReactJS front-end, where the state of the interface can be stored as a JSON blob.

It's low priority now, but I filed it so it wouldn't get lost.
