Exactly... And I think everyone will agree that there's no reason to
remove bookmarks--unless done so explicitly--once we have the ability to
set multiple bookmarks and give them names. After all, which would you
remove? So, no need for "Clear Saved Position on playback".
As far as "Alternate Clear Saved Position" goes, it makes absolutely no
sense at all once you have multiple. Again, which one would be
removed? (The closest one? The one you last set? ...) Multiple
bookmarks with names requires a new UI for explicitly removing/editing
bookmarks (possibly part of the existing edit functionality, which would
go well with the new markup changes Greg is working on).
