            Bug ID: 144677
           Summary: To treat bookmarks as fields or as bookmarks, and not
                    as formatting marks
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: johnsmithbeatles at gmail.com

Description:
Currently, from the user's point of View, Writer treats bookmarks as formatting
marks, but it doesn't make sense in my opinion.

Bookmarks are much closer to fields: in fact, they are used for almost the same
purposes as "Insert > Cross-reference > Set Reference".

So I am sure that bookmarks should be treated (from the user's point of view)
just as bookmarks or as fields, but not as formatting marks. This means that:

* Whether bookmarks are shown or not shouldn **not** be affected by toggling
"View > Formatting Marks". Probably it should by "View > Bookmarks" or "View >
Show Bookmarks" instead.

* They should not use the blue color. The blue color should stay reserved for
formatting marks. It is probably much better to use shading for them. And this
shading **should** be affected by "View > Field Shading".

* Bookmarks should be shown by default.
