A serious pdf reader should offer bookmark functionality like the OP and
gazillions of users expect it.


The "keditbookmarks" GUI standalone app has import / export functions. Some
find/replace functinality for the document's path, e.g. using  


/home/bookmk

~/documents/


could tremendously enhance the power of Okular. For the moment, manual
find/replace of the path does already allow users to maintain big
bookmark-collections across machines and what not.

2 collaborating users would, however, use a standardized absolute path such as


/home/bookies

or make that a symbolic link (via:   ln -s  src targ  ) into

/~/documents  in a particular language  (such as:   ~/Dokumente/ )


Worth repeating that without powerful portable bookmarks, which clearly are
possible, Okular is not half the man it used to be in user's perception.
