There is list-registers and view-registers and the contents of
register-alist are fairly well documented if you use C-h v.
I'm not sure if that helps but I can't remember seeing a package
that acutally marks the locations. You could probably redefine
set-register to add an overlay whenever a point is put into
a register and remove the overlay when the register's value is
changed. It doesn't look like it would be too hard.
