Right now I’m reading through the book Real World Haskell, and finding my way back to where I was is kind of a pain. I don’t want to save intermediate bookmarks because I don’t want to have to clean up the mess, or pollute delicious with redundant links. (I think we can all agree that’s happened enough)

What I’d really like is something like version control for the browsing environment. Basically an add-on that saves the browser state somewhere online and checks for updates. This should preserve open windows, tabs, and scroll locations. Obviously things like restoring JavaScript/Flash/Java applet states would be more of a challenge than it is worth, but it would be pretty useful to me. My very brief search didn’t find anything like this, if it doesn’t exist I may have to see how hard it really is to make an add-on.

Update:

What I’m looking for kind of exists in the aptly named Session Manager add-on. The only problem is that it saves these sessions locally. It might not be too hard to make it work with a different (i.e. online) data store.
