Facilitate Serendipitous Discovery

I hope it's not too much like Stumble Upon, since that thing stumbled upon that which would cause me to stumble more than once. So I cast it out and bid it come not hence again. (You just gotta use King James English on those things, you know.)

The completed command can't be dragged to the toolbar /shortcut bar like other commands can. Anyway we can have it work?

Type 'f' in command box; 'Facilitate Serendipitous Discovery' will appear in the drop-down suggestions; click that and drag to shortcut bar.

Hmm, but now I have a problem, it looks EXACTLY like the close all command I've already got there.

We really need different icons, or the ability to add them - please.....

Curiously, it must only store that single instance of FSD. Every time I click it, no matter when or even after a restart it goes to the same resource now: P46 from the text of the earliest NTG manuscripts. (P266).

Correct; this is a known (but not high priority) bug.

Nice ... this is a great feature, which works well for me, as I often need a fresh idea to get me going.

It's a bit like the "lazy button" on a number of my software synthesizers which creates random sounds by setting all the knobs to random positions - it's amazing how many cool sounds I've discovered this way, and how many serendipitous discoveries have begun by picking a "random" book off the bookshelf.

Maybe once we add a new resource it will chose something else. I am getting an article on Sabellianism in Van Til's Intro to Systematic Theology.
