I get a compilation warning after applying the patch...  (The defvar for
eww-bookmarks should be moved.)

But conceptually I'm not sure this is a good idea.  If you have a
bookmarks file, then if you say `M-x eww', you will apparently default
to the first entry in the bookmarks file?  That doesn't seem very
helpful.  It would be OK to have that as the first entry in the `M-n'
history, but not as the default.  If I read the code correctly.
