The underappreciated .url file / [InternetShortcut] format seems like a much better fit for this:
1. 20+ years of OS support for double-click to open
2. It already supports an embedded title.
3. It's basically just INI/TOML, so you can add custom fields that get ignored by parsers. Want to embed a screenshot? Just append Screenshot=B64(data). Want to add tags? Same deal.
That’s a dealbreaker for me. I like something that I can use grep and other Unix utilities on. There’s a reason that the tabular style formats of /etc/passwd, crontab and inetd exist.

+1 on this concept, though. For some reason folks forget that the filesystem is a pretty decent hierarchical database!
