gollark: I don't want this to be a huge open source project. That would be work. People would want support.
gollark: Anyway, beyond FTS, I have some ideas, no idea whether I will ever actually get round to them: Extra Markdown syntax extensions for useful features I want; tracking of page interlinks (including contextual links) and building a cool graph visualization; file attachment; a web clipper; keyboard shortcuts.
