Not exactly, I meant cycling through all available buffers.

This implements a nice bookmark functionality. But as said before, my focus
is on cycling trough all buffers. It is very much like previous-buffer already
does, but it should bring up all buffers.
The background is that I typically have a more or less fixed arrangement of
windows--one larger one on the right half of the screen to do the actual edit
stuff, some smaller ones in a vertical split of the left hand side--and just
want to quickly alter the buffer that any of these windows shows.
Of course one could use switch-to-buffer and enter the respective buffer's
name, but if there are not so much buffers it is faster to quickly cycle
through all of them until the right one is shown.
