You've got two plugin suggestions, a final suggestion might be to
simply write the file at each "mark" and use :earlier 1f, :earlier 2f,
etc. to go back to the point just after each save.

I mostly use gundo but have histwin still installed, mostly for the
tagging feature. One of these days I should start actually using
that :-)
