Sounds like a bug, but I'm not able to reproduce it. It may be something
specific to the studio players.

There shouldn't be anything different between the bookmarking menus and other
menus as I just copied the code and replaced the identifiers. That said, it's
possible that there is some code someplace that initializes everything
correctly. I'll add a note to the readme as to the potential bug.

Glad you enjoy the bookmarking. It's a collaborated effort with me stealing a
bunch of other Rockbox code ;-).
