No. I want to explicitly be able to jump to a community without search for two reasons:
Search has been unreliable at times and a community may not be listed in the results. (This could be because of a client issue or instance issue.)
There are times where I want to jump to a community, without being subscribed and opt not to search. (Or cannot search for it because of condition #1.) It's also one step instead of two or three.
Essentially, it's a convenience and debugging feature request. This came about because I was essentially blocked from specific communities because of an instance update that broke Connect recently.
