Permit creation of a stable URL that would lead to a simple search with all records limited by any facets, e.g., location.
We'd like to create stable links to entire collections for use on our website, guides and course shells. For example, a link that leads to all records with a given location.
This is currently possible for Advanced Search with a pre-filter. But users are distracted by Advanced Search's space and complexity, which pushes the results down the page. And if there are multiple languages or material types, the pre-filters would be overly restrictive.

– do a search of which you know that this location will part of the result list
– filter by this location
– manipulate the URL by replacing your search term with "*" [you'll have to write the quotation marks, too] -

Please also consider voting for https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/308176-primo/suggestions/41754031-ability-to-run-a-real-blank-blank-search-with-face
This would allow you to first do the blank search, then filter by location and use the result as your stable URL.
