I will also do my best to watch here for requests for enhancement 
to bookmark features and implement the ones that are not *too* 
complex at least.  I can't make any promises, but often these 
things are not hard.

Oliver, can you describe the "delete confirmation" functionality 
you had in mind?

(Once we have a clear idea of what we're talking about with a 
given enhancement, I may suggest that we move the conversation 
over to emacs-devel, so more of the developers can be aware of it. 
But getting the basic ideas worked out over here first seems like 
a good idea.)
