Details

This is an idea Connor pointed out today during the UX meeting.

We'd like to "tag" pages visited from a search with the search string.
So for example typing "coffee" in the urlbar, and then clicking "Starbucks" in the search, would tag "Starbucks" in history with "coffee".
This is a similar concept to AdaptiveHistory so a similar approach may be used.

We can then use this data to provide better local results.

It should be feasible if the DocShell passes some sort of session id to history, then history would know if a link visit comes just after a search page visit.
