The latter says: ;; This file implements real bookmarks for Gnus, closely following the way ;; `bookmark.el' handles bookmarks. Most of the code comes from ;; `bookmark.el'. I'm not sure why GNUS bookmarks should live in a separate space from other bookmarks, and my feeling is that they ought to be unified -- that is, the gnus-bookmark.el functionality absorbed into bookmark.el, with compatibility shims to transfer people's ~/.gnus.bmk file contents to ~/.emacs.bmk. (Of course, I really mean whatever the values of `gnus-bookmark-default-file' and `bookmark-default-file' are, respectively.) Thoughts?
