Hi Bastien, emacs developers,
* Bastien <bzg@gnu.org> [2021-05-19; 14:00]:

may I present my user experience with this feature:

Only when I read this post from Bastien, I tested jumping
via bookmark to my last capture and realized this prominent
(in my case) orange highlighting in my org file which I
wondered about in the last few days.  It looks like a
warning to me and I felt stressed because I did not know
about its origin/reason.  Perhaps some light lavender would
have been less stressing.

For me this highlighting was totally confusing although I
actually use bookmarks (to jump to directories) but the
highlighting was there -- in my org files at leat -- without
me doing a bookmark jump and therefore I did not realize
what its for.

I think its a useful feature but default should be off
and/or a tooltip provided.


Ciao; Gregor
