Vlad I think a good idea would be allowing to add an invocation keyword while creating the bookmark. This would make it much more visible.
Currently, only the name and the location can be edited while creating a bookmark
DuckDuckGo-style custom !bang searches
Shadowknight It is not useful in 99% of cases when adding a bookmark so it could become a nuisance. Maybe have Advanced button on the left that would open it?
Fortrikka Yeah, Chrome has this as well. In Safari, the its automatic detection of search pages is mixed. I very rarely use it. Plus it's difficult to access and cannot be customized. It definitely doesn't work for single-page JavaScript apps.
Shadowknight I feel like this feature makes more sense living under the search engines list since that's what It's about. But glad it exists at all. Definitely should be discoverable beyond the extremely rare case a user wants to edit a bookmark.
The more complex the ask is, the less likely it will get developed any time soon.
Starting with existing Orion functionality, what is the minimum ask here?

This seems to underly the same concept but this involves manually creating an invocation keyword so not the same. Here for reference.
The thing is Google Chrome and Firefox already do these automatically for all inputs with a menu where you can edit these.
Arguably the best feature of DuckDuckGo.
Vlad The minimum ask is that the search keyword and URL to be bookmarked are exposed in the "Add this page to..." (add bookmark) dialog, perhaps initially hidden under a "More Options" or "Search Options" button that reveals these fields when clicked.
An alternative minimum ask is that a keyword field is added to the search engines add/edit dialog [Preferences > Search > Manage > +]. I suspect that's where people who have used these features before in other browsers are most likely to look for them.
