Shows Navigator > Bookmarks > Bookmark > Edit...

Setup:

In a document, add some bookmarks (Insert > Bookmark). Go to the Navigator.
Expand Bookmarks.

Enhancement:

Currently for each bookmark under Bookmarks, a selection can be made via
right-click > Bookmark > Edit... This displays the "Insert Bookmark" window.
The same one that is under Insert > Bookmark.

In the Navigator, the right-click menu for each bookmark already contains
Bookmark > Delete and Bookmark > Rename. I'm not sure what the purpose of
Bookmark > Edit is when executed from Navigator > Bookmarks.

>From the Bookmark window:

The button Rename is already on the Navigator > Bookmarks right-click menu.

The button Delete is already on the Navigator > Bookmarks right-click menu.

The button Goto is achieved by double-clicking a specific bookmark.

The button Insert, which is active, seems to just add another bookmark, but
which one is not clear.

  - In the Bookmark window nothing is highlighted/selected in the list. 
  - I selected a bookmark in the Navigator with a different page than was added
when I clicked Insert. 
  - Last, I repositioned myself to a specific page in the document and clicked
to establish the cursor position. 
    I right-clicked a bookmark > Bookmark > Edit..., and it wasn't that page
number either.

If Insert doesn't make sense from Navigator > Bookmarks, how about changing
Edit... to View....  If Insert does make sense, I wasn't able to get it to
work. It would not insert the current cursor position as a bookmark. However, I
think it might be the last bookmark inserted successfully from the Insert >
Bookmark menu.

Also, Rename should be "Rename...". It opens a dialog.

Also, clicking the Insert button should not close the Bookmark window, no
matter how it was invoked (Insert > Bookmark or Navigator > Bookmarks >
abookmark > Bookmark > Edit....  A user may want to add/insert many bookmarks.
It seems they would position cursor in the document and click Insert, position
again someplace else, and click Insert again.  But currently clicking the
Insert button closes the window. 

In addition:

If I hover over an object in the Navigator (i.e., Tables, Bookmarks), the
"Extended Tips" will show how many there are. It would be helpful if the hover
over a specific bookmark showed the Page number.

In the lower left-hand corner, if you right-click the page numbers, the
bookmark list appears. It would be helpful if the page number appeared in the
list too (2-column list).

Currently version: 6.1.4.2
OS: Linux
