 - What precise workflow do I need for me to be viable to use this?
 - From a user (novice) point of view, how does it look like?
 
-
+- Open with seek string (open at pattern) filename:32 filename:/^Window$/
+- ctrl+f should insert selected text into search
+- Do we need constrained jump history????? So that we can finally collect garbage buffers at some point. Or maybe only constrained to garbage buffers
 - build console window
 - Show what process/coroutines are running and allow to kill (active process buffer?)
 - Database idea: use special buffers to store information
