Issue 83212 is not specific for bookmarks, it's more about how Writer implements selections and cursor positions. >> Our refactoring was done because we thought that it's time to account >> for the number of "special" treatments of some kinds of bookmarks.

The refactoring will not fix any bugs or implement any enhancements directly (perhaps only as a "side effect" or if the fix would be a cheap win) - it will "only" make the code better and so hopefully will make our work easier and so bug fixing and enhancements can be done with less effort and a smaller regression risk.
