I hope someone will find it in them to tackle the problem of common
"reference" format which can be shared between `revert-buffer-function`,
`bookmark`, `help-xref`, ...

What problem is that?

The problem that those should all rely on a single piece of information
provided by the mode and it should work for help-xref, for bookmark, for
revert-buffer instead of having to set those separately, each one using
a slightly different representation and calling convention.

Ah, yeah, that's true -- the use cases do overlap somewhat.  And it'd be
nice to go able to bookmark more special-mode buffers.

Using revert-buffer-function for bookmarking then is similar to
saving revert-buffer-function to the desktop file
to be able to revisit it after restarting Emacs.
This will remove the need of implementing both hooks:
bookmark-make-record-function and desktop-buffer-mode-handlers.
