Describe the solution you'd like Implement as a "submit to external site" feature similar to MutationDistiller.

After doing some research, it becomes clear that it is not possible to either deep-link into variant interpretation or create a form POST into VEP. There is no "variant interpretation" deep link as all output is generated for each input/query only. Form posts do not return a query ID but the query is stored within the current browser session.
