Thanks a lot for pointing the capital O key for changing the sort ordering. 
It does exactly what I was looking for and it seems to sort both sessions 
and windows inside each session. This is very nice. 
I was wondering if I can make this my default sorting, instead of pressing 
O twice every time I open the sessions or windows lists.

Also, what part of the documentation would be relevant to read more on this 
and other ways to interact with the windows lists?

Concerning bookmarks, you are correct, the windows name is the place to 
use. I have chosen to have windows names set dynamically from the path of 
the folder they are in, so I have given up that in favor of showing PWD in 
the window name. The bookmarks where more intended to have a subset of the 
existing windows reachable pressing a single key, a sort of quick-dial in 
which you list only a subset of the windows you have and can access them by 
a conifgurable single stroke (e.g. b for build, r for run, d for debug and 
so no ...). Maybe I am just thinking about a configurable shortcut for 
certain windows, indest of having them bound to the standard 0-10 M-a to 
M-z. Can these be configured to access a given window of a given session by 
one single user-defined key or sequence?

Best
Roberto
