Continuing the discussion from [Being a Heretic aka Going Back to Pagination?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/being-a-heretic-aka-going-back-to-pagination/52070/2):

I wonder if it would be possible to have some kind of “page marks” be visible on the vertical scroll bar on the right? Or maybe simply bookmarks? A mock up is seen below:

Of course because there are not enough room for all bookmarks (may happen!) the vertical bar could be divided into, say, 5 chunks and display the latest bookmark in each chunk. When the slider would be on top of the chunk, the bookmark would become invisible.

**Main functionality** would be to click the bookmark or the text and jump to the bookmarked message.
