All that often I try to use jump marks but find it quite unpredictable. I'm never sure where the jump function will take me to. > Don't get me wrong, BBEdit is fantastic, but neither jump marks or > markers do nothing to help navigate text from keyboard.

You know that you can assign keyboard shortcuts to the bookmark menu and its entries? See Preferences > Menus & Shortcuts > Navigation Bar. I have a shortcut for "Set Marker" and "Open Marker Menu". Once you open the Bookmarks menu typing the first characters of an entry will take you to it. Especially nice is the fact that you can bookmark selections (unfortunately BBEdit looses the correct start and end positions of selections once in a while for no apparent reason so I have to set them again). With these settings I find the bookmark functions quite useful. But I would love to have the jump functions just a little more verbose.
