Why "book" though? Why not "data" or "position" "label"? "Bookmark" is
a nice term in English given that a "bookmark" is well understood, and
when applied to a website, the leap isn't that hard to fathom, but to a
Klingon *paqper* might make them think it's another word for "title", and
really for a book. Just thinking...
