It's a common misconception that if there are significant situations in which some idea won't work, it's "impossible". Often, though, having something work most of the time is still better than not having it at all.

• Store bookmarks in the project as line number, and some of the

context surrounding the bookmark.

• If, on loading the file, the number and context don't match, start

looking up and down for the first line that matches the saved context to a certain degree of tolerance.

• If some bookmarks are still unaccounted for, delete them and pop up

a dialog saying "This file was modified since it was last opened in [[Project Name]]. Some of your bookmarks have been removed."

Under certain circumstances this would lead to bookmarks being lost (or even moved), but it would work well enough for 90% of cases.

Bravo Charles!
