I agree.
But some people apparently do want zillions of places noted,
"just in case" they want to return to one of them. That's
why I added an automatic bookmarking mode, which creates
bookmarks periodically, provided the distance from all other
automatic bookmarks is at least at least an option value:
bmkp-automatic-bookmark-min-distance is a variable defined
in `bookmark+-1.el'.
Its value is 1000
Documentation:
Minimum number of chars between automatic bookmark positions.
The period is also an option:
bmkp-automatic-bookmark-mode-delay is a variable defined
in `bookmark+-1.el'.
Its value is 60
Documentation:
Number of seconds delay before automatically setting a bookmark.
I mention this in case it helps someone working on something
similar. There are many ways to save some position (and other
things - desktops were mentioned). Bookmarks are one way (and
they have certain advantages).
