Buffer marks indeed have a proven record of being useful for  
customizations of the editor. This is a good time to review the  
experiences from developers in using buffer marks, and consider  
whether they can be improved. I'd like to see more powerful buffer  
marks that can be subclassed and have event handlers that are  
notified about relevant changes and activities in the editor.
