    My company would very much like this setting also. We are beta testing Bing for Business / MS Search and when there is not a bookmark/Q&A/location hit, the work results section shows up collapsed and we are finding many users are missing it. From a UX perspective, we see this as a show stopper. Otherwise, the experience and results from our beta test is quite good. I can however understand the flip side of a general Bing user searching for public content. So how about an alternative solution of adding an additional URL parameter such that visibility pin open can be controlled per URL call. In our case, we have an existing company intranet home page and would like to re-direct the search from this page to Bing for Business/ MS Search via a URL like below. This would allow companies to tailor the experience for internal search use cases while not impacting users who uses Bing for public searches.
