Not weighing in on whether the manual
should be changed. Just thought I'd
mention that the notion of "jumping"
to a bookmark has always included the
possibility of doing "much more" - as
well as much _less_.
It's _always_ been the case that
"jumping" to a bookmark can do anything
at all. A bookmark can record nearly
any data, and a bookmark handler is
just a function - it can do anything
a function can do.
(But yes, it might help for the manual
to say this explicitly. "Jumping" to
a bookmark is both evocative, for many
or most bookmarks, and misleading, for
some bookmarks.)
