Description
It would be nice if Trac provided a globally available <select>-widget navigation that would list all available reports. After a report is selected from the menu, a JavaScript handler should open the corresponding report page. If no JavaScript is available, show a Go button next to the menu (hidden away in a <noscript> block).
That would allow quickly opening reports without needing to first load the "Available reports" page and clicking on the wanted report there.

We've had this idea all along to add some sort of a user-specific/centric sidebar with shortcuts, favorites/watched items and stuff.
This feature is something that would sit well in that.

I'm closing this because
- the report module is (hopefully) going to go away sometime soon
- the quick search widget already provides this functionality



The power user way of doing this is to simply enter the report ID (such as {6}) into the quick-search field. That doesn't make this enhancement request obsolete, but does decrease the priority.
