Description Andre Weinand CLA 2001-10-10 23:10:09 EDT 
1) In a text editor select all text (more than 1 line) and create a bookmark for the whole range
2) in the vertical ruler context click on any line but the first (showing the bookmark's icon)
Observe: the context menu always shows a "Remove bookmark" but it is not apparent that there is a bookmark spanning the whole range of the document.

Suggest to only allow removal of a bookmark on the line where its starts (and where its icon is shown).
In addition, a multiline bookmark could have an icon giving a visual cue.

	Fixed enabling and disabling of marker ruler actions to be only enabled at the marker's start line.
	Did not change the visual presentation of markers to indicate the range.
	A single click on the marker now selects the range of the marker in the editor.
