Huh, so, after randomly coming across another bookmark-related thread, I understand that the removal of this function, and/or ancillary ones, was alleged to costing gankers a few additional mouse clicks in plying their sociopathic trade …

> Copy paste text format export and import bookmarks would be useful for sharing in a chat channel or mail with contacts, as an alternative to a public share. Something similar to fittings copy and paste structure. An added benefit of this is the ability to backup my bookmarks externally, just as we can do with fittings (there is no tool that I am aware that allows me to do this on Linux via ESI and the ESI API is read only, no import function).

… making this function having been removed yet another case of “This is why we can’t have nice things”, it would seem.
