Prepopulating views/search/forms using URL parameters

At the moment, a view has to be formally created by someone (or by an API call). There is no way to bring a view into existence merely by constructing a URL.
However, you can create context views in smart folders, and the URL for each entity is predictable.
In this case, even though you would seem to be creating a view only once, you are actually creating one for each entity, each of which can then be referenced from anywhere.
(and as a quick point to note, the views will persist even if the smart folder is deleted :wink: )
