I thought I had responded to your actual objections as well, further down, but since you linked me to a flyspray task rather than spelling them out I was left to my own ability to pick them out of a post that wasn't just about your objections to using bookmarking. I'd be happy to have you state your objections clearly so I could understand better. If it's just that "bookmarking is a more complex system" isn't the fact that bookmarking will be remaining somewhat of a mitigation to that argument? We're not getting rid of it, so the more complex system will still be cluttering the code. As well, the advantage of bookmarks is that auto resume would always be available, whether or not a user was using the database, rather than forcing them to. This seems fairly significant to me, since there may not always be space for the database. It can grow quite large if there's a large number of files.
