One option might be to just sort the scored items by bookmark/dateAdded so related newest bookmarks float to the top.
Another beginning might be to just increase score if the item falls within the range in either the bookmark/dateAdded or the history/lastVisited.
This probably covers many useful scenarios e.g. I recall bookmarking (or visiting) a page regarding regex within the last 12mos, so that related item should float to the top.
Note: I haven't played around enough - it might just naturally do this anyway if the order being returned is based on how recent the item is in history or bookmarks!
Thanks to your feedback, I've added a new option to display "dateAdded" for bookmarks and two new options how the recentness of dateAdded affects the score. By default this is very low. (It will take a while until this is published at the stores).
Regarding the sorting / filtering: I see the value in it, but this would be more work and I want to think it through first. Maybe I'll find the time to add it. If yes, maybe I'll add a "sort" mode that cycles between "score" (default)" "last visited" or "date added". Although only score is available for all types of results.
Yes, sorting sounds like a good option.
I've just built in some additional scoring that increases points if last visited was recently. This only works for very recent visits (history/lastVisited), within the time frame that history is being fetched, though.
For bookmark/dateAdded, it might help to display the date added and to allow sorting by it as you suggest. I'm thinking about it.
However, the scope of the extension is rather not being a complete bookmark / history manager replacement. Rather a quick search / navigation tool.
