The problem I have with this is that in my mind lightweight tags /are/ 
bookmarks - why create another namespace for them with all the extra code 
that is needed to deal with them?  If we implemented this bookmark stuff then 
I can't envisage ever using a lightweight tag.

Maybe I'm missing the point - what do people see lightweight tags as useful 
for if not for marking revisions in a not-to-be-published fashion?
