NetBox version

v3.6.1

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

On the quick search page ( /search/?q=%s ) , it would be helpful for various data types to show the parent object (even if it's just in brackets after the name).

Use case

I have two racks at different sites that have the same footprint ID (i.e. "A1"). It would be useful to see on the quick search page the site that they belong to, so I don't have to open all of them to find which one I want.

Database changes

No response

External dependencies
