It be cool to see if they had some ant like behaviour, like robots recruiting more robots.
Go to terminal
ember new app
ember server
start writing code.
It be cool if you added the ability to upload a file rather than having to download it to test something.
From a personal point of view, Sometimes I would just email myself a link to a webpage if I wanted to view it later on mobile or vice versa.
In technical support over email, I used to send customers a link to a kb article or a pdf and a page number. I never had to go beyond something along the lines of, here is a link, you forgot to do step 4 or follow the instructions under the known resolution section.
From a bug reporting point of view, Most people would send a picture and send the dropbox link over slack/email. Dropbox has a little popup with the link to the image after taking a screenshot so it is very easy and fast.
It reminds me of Onenote and Evernote feature to copy snippets from a webpage, though I never tried to share the content.
While not directly similar, The code for searching for specific parts of a webpage seems similar to some web scraping solutions. Ie, here is a webpage, I want to scrape this selection for all similar pages,etc.
For example, if I wanted to download every single one of Microsoft knowledge base article, I could go to https://support.microsoft.com/robots.txt and download every url in the sitemap.
Compare that with other sites that don't provide a sitemap so I would have to hit every single page and try to find out all the links manually by downloading, parsing for links, etc.
Less work for me and less load for the site.
While I"m not sure if it has a direct impact on seo, Making your site more accessible is only a good thing imho.
