It would be a nice option if the browser automatically scrolled to the part I have selected, rather than having to click "Find in browser". The selected part already highlights in the browser but if you happen to be north or south of it in the browser you have to click "Find in browser". Instead, just make the browser scroll to the highlighted part. Have this as an auto-scroll option that could be turned on or off.

We select things as you cruise your mouse (i.e. preview) I assume you wouldn't want that because the browser would be jumping and flashing like crazy. So let's assume it only works on "final" selection (left mouse click).
Some questions:
How does it handle multiple selections (window or control click)? They might not be on the same "page" of the browser.
Does it work for all selections that have a browser equivalent? (Features, work geometry, etc.)

Thanks so much for considering my idea!
I hadn't considered multiple selections when I posted the idea, but I have listed some possible suggestions below.
- (Correct, this would be a left click final selection function.)
- For multiple selections...If you already have the browser tree expanded when you start selecting multiple objects, the tree would autmatically collapse to fit more of the selected objects in the window.
- If you have the tree collapsed when you begin selecting multiple objects it would expand as needed to include them in the window.
- I suppose it could work for any browser equivalent item, though that wasn't my original intent but why not.

- I also think it's critical that this be an option that the user could turn on or off.
