Build an updated ObjectBrowser based on the features of the Volto one:

Using Quanta look and feel: https://www.figma.com/design/YpaRSKjFcFaAkVYnTSVGuz/Volto-UI-%E2%80%93-Quanta?node-id=1782-1491&t=gfc9W7PYw7SfcK6B-4 https://www.figma.com/design/YpaRSKjFcFaAkVYnTSVGuz/Volto-UI-%E2%80%93-Quanta?node-id=1782-1661&t=gfc9W7PYw7SfcK6B-4

There is a couple of things missing from the figma design because the object browser is used to select items also, just as the target of a link.

  • It needs a way to pick an item vs open it.
  • it needs a way to select a anchor within a page instead of a sub item

This is one idea on how to change the quanta design to do both of these.

@djay indeed, we need to address this, a common point of confusion for people.
