Anyway, it was implemented only after VS had it - and many will perceive it
as a "me too" feature.

To be sincere, I do not regard it as something very useful, I prefer
something to move within code fast, not to hide parts of it. For example I
hate that bookmarks are not saved.

What about other useful features "multiple project options" that was
available in TurboPascal, dropped in Delphi 1 and nevere reintroduced
although many developers asked for it? Is it available in D8 now?
