I wanted to point corp to skill plans. I used the 'Skill’s pointer bookmark in a corp email.  
It doesnt work and fails with error ‘This Element (Skills) doesn’t appear to be on your screen right now’.

Yep, that seems like a dead pointer.

It’s not even responding when I have my skill window open. Closed, no pointer, undocked, no pointer.

Time for a bug report.
