The idea is to define cross-browser + cross-platform standard and let the client use an tiny filesystem abstraction library with 9P semantics (in fact most times just call an 9p or FUSE server remotely or through an pipe). So the application once connects to the fs (not necessarily mount it) and then entirely works within there. The application has no idea how the data is actually stored. This way, the bookmark storage is completely independent from the client. You can use any client (which supports that ;)) on any bookmark storage. Things like remote bookmarks, collaboration, etc are completely hidden behind the bookmark server.
