One way to integrate a "don't remember the last used folder" preference
into the UI would be to have a checkbox labelled something like "Use
this folder next time"; checked by default; located in the bookmark
editor (the one that pops up from the bookmark creation star icon).

I think this would have to be accompanied by a change of behaviour, so
that the folder is considered to be "used" if it gets selected in the
editor UI, rather than waiting for a bookmark to be saved into it.
Otherwise it could get rather confusing.

Then, if the checkbox is unchecked, the next time the editor shows, it
defaults to a specific location (e.g. Other Bookmarks) and the box
remains unchecked until manually checked again.

This was not an immediately obvious idea to me, so I thought I'd put on
the table in case this preference gets implemented. There may very well
be better ways, of course.
