I too would like to hear what specifically would be limited or broken by switching to use `tabulated-list-mode' here.

This does not mean I'm necessarily in favor of applying the patch; I just think Stefan's question is important, and I don't see it given a concrete answer anywhere.  What would break in Bookmark+ if this patch were applied to bookmark.el, and/or what new limitations would bookmark.el after this patch?

IOW, I'd just like to understand the tradeoffs better here.

Best regards,
-Karl
