Cool. One implementation request: please consider support for arbitrary 
bookmarks embedded within text. For example, CodeWarrior and Xcode both 
support "#pragma mark <Text>" in C/C++/ObjC/ObjC++ files, where <Text> 
is the name of the boomark; this then appears in the class/function 
navigation menu. Using a dash ("#pragma mark -") inserts a divider 
item. One typical idiom for this is:

#if 0
#pragma mark -
#pragma mark Zork Entropy Analysis Methods
#endif

The conditional eliminates any potential 'unrecognized pragma' warnings.

(BTW, I've considered doing a Perforce command bundle, but haven't had 
the time. I've only got p4 edit "$TM_FILEPATH" with output as a 
tooltip. Useful, but hardly complete enough to release...)

I would use it frequently. (Both BBEdit and SubEthaEdit have such 
tools, if I'm not mistaken.)
