I don't have a strong opinion. For what it's worth, I prefer the
bookmarks in the margins, rather than inline. They are not text
themselves, or related to text, so I find them distracting when inline.
It would certainly help if they did not jump around, but I don't know
that it would help enough.

Then again, I can always disable display locally if need be.
