I know that it is possible to address a specific page or section directly in the browser, by specifying a URL fragment. For example: <http://test.com/test.pdf#page=15>

The feature that I'm suggesting is that when you read a PDF in the browser, the URL in the navigation bar should be updated as you turn the pages or jump to specific sections from the TOC.

So, as I read the PDF, my browser would show #page=1, #page=2,... and so on. This way, I could bookmark a specific page really easily.

Similarly, you could imagine right-clicking on a TOC element or other PDF link and do a "copy URL". This would return a full url that someone else could simply open in a browser.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Julien
