I looked at improving this a few years ago when looking for a product to do.
There are lots of ways to improve bookmarking, content recall etc on the web. Nobody is willing to pay for them.
1. Users don't pay for them. I found lots of startups with the same idea that had pivoted, mostly into dedicated research tools for academics.
2. Browser makers don't pay for them, because if they make their bookmarking tools bad then people search more, and they get paid for search referrals. So making bookmarking or history search better hurts their own revenue.
Nobody is willing to pay. So, nobody gets improvements. If people start being willing to pay for their browser, you'll see them get better at stuff like this.
