Google Search Results, Cover Flow-style

Google with Cover Flow
Problem:
Long lists of text-only search results don't give me enough information. I want an easy way to preview results before I pick the one(s) to click.

Missing Feature:
Inspired by Mac OS X Leopard's use of Cover Flow in the Finder: wouldn't it be cool to see Google search results displayed Cover Flow-style in the Safari web browser? That is, each result would get its own Cover Flow page and you'd see the actual page itself, not just the text summary blurb (extra credit: have the page appear with the search terms highlighted).
