It would be great for saving explorations for later, sharing results between researchers, etc.

e.g., after much exploring a user finds that they want to display a particular set of filtered genes, with a specific one being selected, and a specific feature being selected. They click a "bookmark view" button, which saves the URL:

http://play.microscopium.io/screen_name/treatment_id/?filtered=foo,bar,baz&feature=z

Entering this URL in a browser gets them the exact view they saved.

Awesomely, this could also enable things such as continuing an analysis on iPad on the train home. =D
