Argh, and KPA even warns me that this dialog is complex, and I still
haven't taken the time to read the documentation. That's embarrassing.

bookmarks.

I won't comment on that before I've read the documentation. I think
we've now established my point'n'post tendency :-). But I do think
that this bookmark idea is truly interesting.
