I once needed exactly that and wrote some stack-handling of markers (not
bookmarks) only to find that I didn't want a stack but a ring. The
result was mtorus:

(it was later re-written by Sebastian Freundt resulting in a much more
complex and probably more powerful implementation, but I don't really
know about the state of that version, I still use my old version. See

)
Cheers,
Stefan
