Suggestion: Add game title keyword as optional entry for use with Steam browser
Sometimes while playing a game I find myself using the Steam browser to access information about that game. I tend to close the overlay down and end up searching the same game title and terms over and over again.

I realised that a great idea would be to pull the Title of the game as an optional entry (A variable that is populated by whatever game is being run) it could then be used within a URL/Search string . It makes sense to make it optional since not everyone is going to want to set their browser to a search engine with a specific search in mind.

Currently my work around for this is to change the browser default page to a search engine with the game that I'm currently playings keywords for the search (which is great when I remember to do so)

I just thought it would be a handy feature, anybody else think so or have an alternative opinion on this?

I made a visual Concept of what I'm trying to suggest (just in case it was unclear, hope it helps):
http://steamcommunity.com/id/stryderunknown/images/?appid=767
(A thing that likely already exists is the URL box probably defaults to HTTP unless a HTTPS prefixed URL is otherwise stated.)

I like the idea, over all
But i think may be better if its set for the browser to be able to load the game name, so when using a URL you can have a home page that will have something with "[SteamGameNow]" in the title, and the browser will automate change that do the games name
Then one can use it as they like
(my self will like maybe to make a site for my games with notes i make abut it, or maybe make something like that so any one playing a game can use my site with Steam and that will let the site know what game it is

Hope i was clear
