## Description

Why would you want to do this? Developers often test specific pages or application paths and need to check things out quickly on an alternate environment (like jumping between a local dev environment and a QA or PROD system or a localhost proxy that's on a different port than production) — it’s way faster and less intrusive to your workflow if you don’t have to manually fiddle with the address in the browser location bar!
