(Let me start by saying that I'm sorry if this has been asked and answered before, or if this is the wrong group for this kind of question. I did make a cursory look around before posting this and was unable to find my answer.)
Is there any way I can get an url (that I can send to a friend, for example) that links to a specific collection within my library?
As far as I can tell, the collection filter is set by cookies -- but this is unfortunate because I can definitely see myself wanting to email or post a link to specific collections.
Is there any way to do this? If not, may suggest it as a new (and fairly trivial to implement) feature?

Yes.
If you are looking at a collection in your library - scroll down to the bottom and in the left hand corner there is a little icon and the words "permanent link."
You can also use this if you have searched for a subset of your library by author or tag or what have you. You cannot create a permanent link if you are in "Power Edit" however.
Here is one for my "Favorites" collection:

Hey there is a cleaner way to do this.
The URL can be just
