I need quikly move through my big source file. 
Bookmarks metaphor is good thing but Eclipse implementation of it is too hard to
use. Each new bookbark must be manualy named. To activate it you should find it
in the "Bookmarks view" which must be active too. 

I think you can make new type of bookmark - auto bookmark. It should be
generated on some hot-key (and popup menu) on the current place of cursor (f.g.
Ctrl-K-1 is first autobookmark Ctrl-K-2 - second one etc) 
This bookmark should be activated by simple hot-key (and popup menu), f.g.
Ctrl-Q-1 - activate first bookmark etc. 

If we set new auto-bookmark and it already exists it must be silently reseted.
