I actually agree with you. There are many simple or sophisticated solutions of various kinds for browsers, ranging from the builtin bookmarks to extensions like ReadItLater to bookmarking websites like Delicious. There is no advantage to doing it inside LW, and if there were, it is a feature that is not a priority. (Reddit has a ‘save submission’ feature, and it’s not one I’ve ever found particularly useful nor have I heard that others have found it useful.)
I actually do use the ‘save’ feature in reddit. I find it a handy way to distinguish articles that I found especially useful or high-quality, or that I know I’ll want to look at again in the future. Maybe I’m an exception though, because I don’t use browser bookmarks or any other bookmarking-type service very much.
That functionality still works in lesswrong just as it does in reddit, but there just isn’t a link to get to the page that shows all the stuff you’ve saved, as I noted elsewhere in this thread.
Your browser contains such functionality; no need to duplicate it.
