Dan Haywood updated ISIS-978:
-----------------------------
Description:
Jeroen showed me a 3rd-party app once that did this (it might've been
SugarCRM); I think we're now in striking distance of being able to implement it
within Isis.
Basically, the idea is that, if there are a bunch of "finder"/query actions in
the application menu bar, then whenever invoked these should capture that
invocation as a bookmark (we already can do this) but render that bookmark
*not* in our bookmark panel but instead as a submenu of the application menu.
In other words, when the user selects a menu item from a top-level menu, they
can also easily see (in the submenu) previous invocations of that query.
These could even be pinnable or retained across sessions.
~~~
Raising this now not because necessarily want to implement it, but just to
reserve the idea that submenus of menu items are not for further actions, but
instead might hold these bookmarks.
~~~
Jeroen: can you dig out and attach a screenshot of that application (SugarCRM?)
?
