Sounds like a great idea!

FYI - this is also visible in the browser panel, if you toggle on the
"i" properties display panel. In 3.6 you can also "expand" out
projects in the browser, to see their layers and structure directly
from inside browser (including metadata and layer previews when the
properties panel is opened)

Making it play with locator bar for place search use case would be nice. In QGIS 2, it used to play with OSM place search plugin and allowed to create a mask from a place search outputing a polygon.
