Description Philipp Hartwig 2010-05-27 19:15:10 UTC 
Version:           0.10.3 (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

Currently, using keyboard shortcuts, it is only possible to create/remove unnamed bookmarks and to go to the next/previous bookmark. It should be possible to move between bookmarks in a more elaborate and precise way using the keyboard. 

A possible (and probably not complicated) implementation can be seen in the apvlv pdf reader, which is modelled on the "marks" of the vim text editor. There, when creating a bookmark, it is associated with a character a-zA-Z. For example, pressing mA in apvlv will create a bookmark with the name A. Pressing 'A anywhere in the document will jump to this bookmark.

A feature like this would greatly increase the value of bookmarks, especially for keyboard users.

Reproducible: Always
