So the critical thing here is that bookmarks have their own display pane, so in the tree you jump to wherever the node really lives, the bookmark listing pane doesn't change, so you can click the sibling bookmark to the one you just clicked, which may move the tree somewhere else entirely, without the list of nodes in your view, the bookmark pane, changing or moving. In your post video watching response you talk about wanting to navigate bookmarks using keys - there are already some commands for that, but I haven't really tested them for usability - it would be possible to simply have a `select-bookmark-pane` command after which the cursor keys and enter do what you expect. The video's a bit out of date in that (a) bookmarks are now hierarchical, and (b) have a right-click context menu. And a couple of soft regressions, clicking in the bookmark pane to create a bookmark always creates that bookmark at the beginning of the list, no matter where you click, and nothing stops you adding the same bookmark multiple times now. Bear in mind that free_layout can be used to arrange the bookmarks as a skinny column if preferred.
