This sounds very similar to what was discussed in the "Dash Favorites" 
thread from 26th of February.

It sounds a bit complicated to me, tbh. If the perceived problem is the 
scalability of the launcher then I think we should look for a solution 
in the launcher, not in some other component.

(on a technical note, one could implement 99% of your proposal as a very 
simple lens)

Cheers,
