Hi Max,

I was just thinking - for those that have a high number of saved 
searches, it might be useful to allow the user to specify that they want 
their searches in a pull-down menu rather than taking up so much space 
in the "saved searches" section of the header/footer.  That would save a 
bunch of space and still keep it at the top where it's most likely to be 
used / needed.  It would probably be best if users can configure whether 
or not they see their saved searches in a pull-down and whether or not 
they appear in the header, footer, or both.  Of course, brainstorming a 
bit, it might also be nice if users could group their saved searches so 
they would not only appear in a certain order, but if pull-downs are 
enabled, multiple pull-downs could be offered.
