I'm not saying that Bookmark should call `org-tree-to-indirect-buffer',
but provide a way for major modes to specify a jump function.

In any way, you are right, it already exists through the `handler'
mechanism.

There is only one handler per major mode. Providing a "-function" (or
a "-hook", it depends if it extends a default feature or replace it)
variable could allow users to add their own "view" function
(`org-tree-to-indirect-buffer' in your case, but not limited to it).

This is what I meant.

It makes sense, indeed.
