Currently, the order of bookmarks in `bookmark-alist' is the only
record of the order in which the bookmarks were created -- and
that order is needed for some displayed sorts . Since bookmarks
up till now don't have anything like a creation-date element, we
should just keep the list in creation order, so that this
information is preserved.
I suppose we could in theory do fancier things, like detect when
all the bookmarks have a creation date and abandon the need to
keep the alist in order then, or make sure that just the subset of
`bookmark-alist' that *doesn't* have creation dates is kept in
creation order... but there is no need to be fancy. Let's just
keep the whole alist in order of creation, even after we add
creation-date or other date-ish elements.
Best regards,
-Karl
