The OpenShift admin console's metrics area has a "query-browser" implementation that results in PromQL queries being added to the browser URL. For example, when entering pipeline_predictions_total into the query box, the URL ends up being:

https://console-openshift-console.apps.cluster.example.com/monitoring/query-browser?query0=pipeline_predictions_total

This behavior, though, is not present in the dev console. The dev console will display metrics properly if the URL query parameter is supplied, but entering queries into the PromQL box and hitting enter does not change the browser's current URL.

This behavior makes creating dashboards / bookmarking PromQL queries really easy.
