[Feature Request] More enhancements with what we can do with bookmarks (including Find to Bookmark)

Description

In Notepad++ there is a Mark tab, which I have found very useful for certain situations. It is an underrated feature of Notepad++ which does not exist on any other text editor on planet (as far as I know).

The checkbox "Bookmark line" lets you also bookmark the lines that are being marked, while "Purge for each search" will remove existing markings and bookmarks.

The ability to bookmark the marked lines comes in very handy when you consider what we can do with bookmarks:

The relevant ones being:

  • Cut Bookmarked Lines
  • Copy Bookmarked Lines
  • Remove Bookmarked Lines
  • Remove Unmarked Lines

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to see a full-fledged Mark tab in NotepadNext which replicates the function in Notepad++.

If a full-fledged "Mark" tab is not planned right now, perhaps the "Find" tab in NotepadNext could have a button to bookmark by searching:

Then the Bookmarks menu can be enhanced with more options:

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not sure if there's an alternative for this is NotepadNext right now. If yes, willing to discuss.

The "Bookmark all" in the "Find" tab would be a great feature to have. I used it frequently in Notepad++ to easier filter data from log files.
