OK, I typically spend a fair amount of time trying to figure out what versions of software are deployed at a client site.

Inventory->Applications->"Microsoft Word.app" will present me with a distribution list of versions of Office 2008/2011.

From there I then need to go to Management->Smart Computer Groups->Create Smart Group->Name it and enter the same criteria (Software Info->Application Title->Application Version et. al.).

What if there was a link to "Create Smart Group" next to each distribution, i.e.

"Microsoft Word.app" 12.2.5 | Back to top (Create Smart Group link here)

Would this save a huge amount of time for anyone else, or just me?

    Yeah that'd be a nice one. I'd also add that it would be nice to have the
    same functionality in general on any kind of advanced search, not just
    applications. Similar to how you can add search results to the saved
    searches. Have a "saved smart groups" type of function
