Option to jump to context of a search result #31

My goal is to learn at what pages I looked at before and after searching a certain page. Therefore I first search for a certain keyword from the page title in all of my history. Then in a second step I would like to mark the page I found and remove the search filter, so I can see the context, i.e. see all the other pages I was browsing before and afterwards. I currently see no way to efficiently do the second step.

Good suggestion. Actually I have thought about this, and the history API does provide us with a referringVisitId, but there is no way to retrieve one item by visitId. Similar question:
