Errm, isn't that sort of what bookmarks are for?
Though of course they don't provide for random anchors but.
Also how would that work on a remote document over which you have no
control.
e.g. u assign X to the 57th line of some document , then when you
neext visit that document via your buffr thingy it's only got 40
lines?
