IMO, bookmarks cannot be implemented properly (go ahead Allan, prove me wrong :-). Automatic bookmarks (that "boomark" each line matching a certain pattern), would be much more useful.
Yes, automatic bookmarks are on the to-do. And you're right about the meta-data problem. I want to keep as much as possible automatic, because meta-data is easily lost and/or the file can get out-of-synch.
With my own use of bookmarks I do also appreciate that these are reset on a new session -- but when/if I introduce a general system for meta-data (or the OS does) bookmarks are likely to be optionally kept there.
